              groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader

Direct Known Subclasses:

GroovyClassLoader.InnerLoader

public class GroovyClassLoader
extends java.net.URLClassLoader

A ClassLoader which can load Groovy classes. The loaded classes are cached, classes from other classlaoders should not be cached. To be able to load a script that was asked for earlier but was created later it is essential not to keep anything like a "class not found" information for that class name. This includes possible parent loaders. Classes that are not chached are always reloaded.

                                 CompilationFailedException

Throws:

CompilationFailedException - if compilation was not successful

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

getClassCacheEntry

protected java.lang.Class getClassCacheEntry(java.lang.String name)

gets a class from the class cache. This cache contains only classes loaded through this class loader or an InnerLoader instance. If no class is stored for a specific name, then the method should return null.

Parameters:

name - of the class

Returns:

the class stored for the given name

See Also:

removeClassCacheEntry(String), setClassCacheEntry(Class), clearCache()

setClassCacheEntry

protected void setClassCacheEntry(java.lang.Class cls)

sets an entry in the class cache.

Parameters:

cls - the class

See Also:

removeClassCacheEntry(String), getClassCacheEntry(String), clearCache()

removeClassCacheEntry

protected void removeClassCacheEntry(java.lang.String name)

removes a class from the class cache.

Parameters:

name - of the class

See Also:

getClassCacheEntry(String), setClassCacheEntry(Class), clearCache()

addURL

public void addURL(java.net.URL url)

adds a URL to the classloader.

Overrides:

addURL in class java.net.URLClassLoader

Parameters:

url - the new classpath element

isRecompilable

protected boolean isRecompilable(java.lang.Class cls)

Indicates if a class is recompilable. Recompileable means, that the classloader will try to locate a groovy source file for this class and then compile it again, adding the resulting class as entry to the cache. Giving null as class is like a recompilation, so the method should always return true here. Only classes that are implementing GroovyObject are compileable and only if the timestamp in the class is lower than Long.MAX_VALUE.

NOTE: First the parent loaders will be asked and only if they don't return a class the recompilation will happen. Recompilation also only happen if the source file is newer.

Parameters:

cls - the class to be tested. If null the method should return true

Returns:

true if the class should be compiled again

See Also:

isSourceNewer(URL, Class)

setShouldRecompile

public void setShouldRecompile(java.lang.Boolean mode)

sets if the recompilation should be enable. There are 3 possible values for this. Any value different than null overrides the value from the compiler configuration. true means to recompile if needed false means to never recompile.

Parameters:

mode - the recompilation mode

See Also:

CompilerConfiguration

isShouldRecompile

public java.lang.Boolean isShouldRecompile()

gets the currently set recompilation mode. null means, the compiler configuration is used. False means no recompilation and true means that recompilation will be done if needed.

Returns:

the recompilation mode

loadClass

                                 boolean lookupScriptFiles,
