org.codehaus.commons.compiler.AbstractJavaSourceClassLoader

Direct Known Subclasses:

JavaSourceClassLoader, JavaSourceClassLoader

public abstract class AbstractJavaSourceClassLoader
extends ClassLoader

A ClassLoader that, unlike usual ClassLoaders, does not load byte code, but reads Java source code and then scans, parses, compiles and loads it into the virtual machine.

As with any ClassLoader, it is not possible to "update" classes after they've been loaded. The way to achieve this is to give up on the AbstractJavaSourceClassLoader and create a new one.

main

public static void main(String[] args)
                 throws Exception

Reads Java source code for a given class name, scan, parse, compile and load it into the virtual machine, and invoke its "main()" method with the given arguments.

Usage is as follows:

   java AbstractJavaSourceClassLoader [ option ] ... class-name [ argument ] ...

   option:
     -sourcepath colon-separated-list-of-source-directories
     -encoding character-encoding
     -g                           Generate all debugging info
     -g:none                      Generate no debugging info
     -g:{source,lines,vars}       Generate only some debugging info
 

Throws:

Exception
