Interface LocalLoader

  • All Known Subinterfaces:
    IterableLocalLoader
    All Known Implementing Classes:
    AbstractLocalLoader
    public interface LocalLoader
    A loader which implements the local part of a module.

    Thread safety warning! The loader must never call into a class loader (or any other object) which may take locks and subsequently delegate to a module class loader. This will cause deadlocks and other hard-to-debug concurrency problems.
