net.bytebuddy.dynamic.loading.ByteArrayClassLoader

public class ByteArrayClassLoader
extends ClassLoader

A ClassLoader that is capable of loading explicitly defined classes. The class loader will free any binary resources once a class that is defined by its binary data is loaded. This class loader is thread safe since the class loading mechanics are only called from synchronized context.
