public abstract class RMIClassLoaderSpi

RMIClassLoaderSpi is the service provider interface for RMIClassLoader. In particular, an RMIClassLoaderSpi instance provides an implementation of the following static methods of RMIClassLoader:

• RMIClassLoader.loadClass(URL,String)
• RMIClassLoader.loadClass(String,String)
• RMIClassLoader.loadClass(String,String,ClassLoader)
• RMIClassLoader.loadProxyClass(String,String[],ClassLoader)
• RMIClassLoader.getClassLoader(String)
• RMIClassLoader.getClassAnnotation(Class)

When one of those methods is invoked, its behavior is to delegate to a corresponding method on an instance of this class. The details of how each method delegates to the provider instance is described in the documentation for each particular method. See the documentation for RMIClassLoader for a description of how a provider instance is chosen.
