> The RMIClassLoader class and RMIClassLoaderSPI is currently the control point
> for managing the "platform" view of how classes are loaded. In IDEs and
> other different environments, the "parent" classloader view, is not always
> the "system class loader". There are some other variations on class loading
> that seem to indicate that while RMIClassLoaderSPI can be plugged into, it
> doesn't always provide quite the right facilities because even plugging into
> the system class loader to override it might not be possible.
> The diffs included here show some preliminary work that I did investigating
> this issue to try and make it possible to discover and load Jini servers
> within the netbeans IDE.
> Refinement and some rework will be needed, and some other investigation into
> other platforms such as JEE and other IDEs would be helpful in making sure we
> understand what is really needed. Even OSGi would be something to look at.
