classloader简介
1 classloader层次结构（父子关系）
Bootstrap（ClassLoader）
- ExtClassLoader
- AppClassLoader
- XXXClassLoader
- AppClassLoader
详见代码如下：
sun.misc.Launcher
public Launcher() {
Launcher.ExtClassLoader var1;
try {
var1 = Launcher.ExtClassLoader.getExtClassLoader();
} catch (IOException var10) {
throw new InternalError("Could not create extension class loader", var10);
}
try {
this.loader = Launcher.AppClassLoader.getAppClassLoader(var1);
} catch (IOException var9) {
throw new InternalError("Could not create application class loader", var9);
}
2 classloader加载类过程
classloader在加载class时优先尝试通过parent classloader加载，如果加载不到，才尝试自己加载，即常说的“双亲委派”，
并且如果一个class依赖其他class，比如ClassA依赖ClassB，ClassB默认由ClassA的classloader来加载。
* <p> The methods and constructors of objects created by a class loader may
* reference other classes. To determine the class(es) referred to, the Java
* virtual machine invokes the {@link #loadClass <tt>loadClass</tt>} method of
* the class loader that originally created the class.
详见代码如下：
java.lang.ClassLoader
protected Class<?> loadClass(String name, boolean resolve)
throws ClassNotFoundException
{
synchronized (getClassLoadingLock(name)) {
// First, check if the class has already been loaded
Class<?> c = findLoadedClass(name);
if (c == null) {
long t0 = System.nanoTime();
try {
if (parent != null) {
c = parent.loadClass(name, false);
} else {
c = findBootstrapClassOrNull(name);
}
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
// ClassNotFoundException thrown if class not found
// from the non-null parent class loader
}
if (c == null) {
// If still not found, then invoke findClass in order
// to find the class.
long t1 = System.nanoTime();
c = findClass(name);
// this is the defining class loader; record the stats
sun.misc.PerfCounter.getParentDelegationTime().addTime(t1 - t0);
sun.misc.PerfCounter.getFindClassTime().addElapsedTimeFrom(t1);
sun.misc.PerfCounter.getFindClasses().increment();
}
}
if (resolve) {
resolveClass(c);
}
return c;
}
}
