## Class BshClassManager

- java.lang.Object
- - org.gjt.sp.jedit.bsh.BshClassManager

- Direct Known Subclasses:
    ClassManagerImpl

      public class BshClassManager
      extends java.lang.Object

  BshClassManager manages all classloading in BeanShell. It also supports a dynamically loaded extension (bsh.classpath package) which allows classpath extension and class file reloading. Currently the extension relies on 1.2 for BshClassLoader and weak references. See http://www.beanshell.org/manual/classloading.html for details on the bsh classloader architecture.

  Bsh has a multi-tiered class loading architecture. No class loader is used unless/until the classpath is modified or a class is reloaded.

- - ### Field Detail

    - #### externalClassLoader

          protected java.lang.ClassLoader externalClassLoader

      An external classloader supplied by the setClassLoader() command.

    - #### absoluteClassCache

          protected transient java.util.Hashtable absoluteClassCache

      Global cache for things we know are classes. Note: these should probably be re-implemented with Soft references. (as opposed to strong or Weak)

    - #### absoluteNonClasses

          protected transient java.util.Hashtable absoluteNonClasses

      Global cache for things we know are *not* classes. Note: these should probably be re-implemented with Soft references. (as opposed to strong or Weak)

    - #### resolvedObjectMethods

          protected transient java.util.Hashtable resolvedObjectMethods

      Caches for resolved object and static methods. We keep these maps separate to support fast lookup in the general case where the method may be either.

    - #### resolvedStaticMethods

          protected transient java.util.Hashtable resolvedStaticMethods

    - #### definingClasses

          protected transient java.util.Hashtable definingClasses

    - #### definingClassesBaseNames

          protected transient java.util.Hashtable definingClassesBaseNames

  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### BshClassManager

          public BshClassManager()

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### createClassManager

          public static BshClassManager createClassManager(Interpreter interpreter)

      Create a new instance of the class manager. Class manager instnaces are now associated with the interpreter.
      See Also:
        `getClassManager`, `setClassLoader`

    - #### classExists

          public boolean classExists(java.lang.String name)

    - #### classForName

          public java.lang.Class classForName(java.lang.String name)

      Load the specified class by name, taking into account added classpath and reloaded classes, etc. Note: Again, this is just a trivial implementation. See bsh.classpath.ClassManagerImpl for the fully functional class management package.
      Returns:
        the class or null

    - #### loadSourceClass

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

    - #### plainClassForName

          public java.lang.Class plainClassForName(java.lang.String name)
                                            throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

      Perform a plain Class.forName() or call the externally provided classloader. If a BshClassManager implementation is loaded the call will be delegated to it, to allow for additional hooks.

      This simply wraps that bottom level class lookup call and provides a central point for monitoring and handling certain Java version dependent bugs, etc.
      Returns:
        the class
      Throws:
        `java.lang.ClassNotFoundException`
      See Also:
        `classForName( String )`

    - #### getResource

          public java.net.URL getResource(java.lang.String path)

      Get a resource URL using the BeanShell classpath
      Parameters:
        `path` - should be an absolute path

    - #### getResourceAsStream

          public java.io.InputStream getResourceAsStream(java.lang.String path)

      Get a resource stream using the BeanShell classpath
      Parameters:
        `path` - should be an absolute path

    - #### cacheClassInfo

          public void cacheClassInfo(java.lang.String name,
                            java.lang.Class value)

      Cache info about whether name is a class or not.
      Parameters:
        `value` - if value is non-null, cache the class if value is null, set the flag that it is *not* a class to speed later resolution

    - #### cacheResolvedMethod

          public void cacheResolvedMethod(java.lang.Class clas,
                                 java.lang.Class[] types,
                                 java.lang.reflect.Method method)

      Cache a resolved (possibly overloaded) method based on the argument types used to invoke it, subject to classloader change. Static and Object methods are cached separately to support fast lookup in the general case where either will do.

    - #### getResolvedMethod

          protected java.lang.reflect.Method getResolvedMethod(java.lang.Class clas,
                                                   java.lang.String methodName,

      Return a previously cached resolved method.
      Parameters:
        `onlyStatic` - specifies that only a static method may be returned.
      Returns:
        the Method or null

    - #### clearCaches

          protected void clearCaches()

      Clear the caches in BshClassManager

    - #### setClassLoader

          public void setClassLoader(java.lang.ClassLoader externalCL)

      Set an external class loader. BeanShell will use this at the same point it would otherwise use the plain Class.forName(). i.e. if no explicit classpath management is done from the script (addClassPath(), setClassPath(), reloadClasses()) then BeanShell will only use the supplied classloader. If additional classpath management is done then BeanShell will perform that in addition to the supplied external classloader. However BeanShell is not currently able to reload classes supplied through the external classloader.

    - #### addClassPath

          public void addClassPath(java.net.URL path)
                            throws java.io.IOException

      Clear all loaders and start over. No class loading.

    - #### setClassPath

          public void setClassPath(java.net.URL[] cp)
                            throws UtilEvalError

      Set a new base classpath and create a new base classloader. This means all types change.
      Throws:
        `UtilEvalError`

    - #### reloadAllClasses

          public void reloadAllClasses()
                                throws UtilEvalError

      Overlay the entire path with a new class loader. Set the base path to the user path + base path. No point in including the boot class path (can't reload thos).
      Throws:
        `UtilEvalError`

    - #### reloadClasses

          public void reloadClasses(java.lang.String[] classNames)
                             throws UtilEvalError

      Reloading classes means creating a new classloader and using it whenever we are asked for classes in the appropriate space. For this we use a DiscreteFilesClassLoader
      Throws:
        `UtilEvalError`

    - #### reloadPackage

          public void reloadPackage(java.lang.String pack)
