Class ClassFileLocator.ForClassLoader

java.lang.Object

net.bytebuddy.dynamic.ClassFileLocator.ForClassLoader

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable, ClassFileLocator

Enclosing interface:

ClassFileLocator

@HashCodeAndEqualsPlugin.Enhance
public static class ClassFileLocator.ForClassLoader
extends Object
implements ClassFileLocator

A class file locator that queries a class loader for binary representations of class files.

Important: Even when calling Closeable.close() on this class file locator, no underlying class loader is closed if it implements the Closeable interface as this is typically not intended.
