Simone Tripodi commented on ANY23-50:
-------------------------------------
Hola!
META-INF/services metadata are always generated at compile time, indeed plugins
are annotated with
[@MetaInfService|http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohsuke/archive/2009/03/my_project_of_t.html]
that is part of a provided-scope Annotation Processor wrote by Kohsuke (the
Hudson/Jenkin's father)
In Any23 the ServiceLoader is used inside the the Any23PluginManager, relying
on the already managed dynamic ClassLoader, so when adding new jars/resources
at runtime to the ClassLoader, SL queries it.
I think that the same strategy can be applied to Extractors' factories as well,
WDYT?
Anyway, please double-ack if you agree I can commit the modification!
TIA!
