Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-5573:
------------------------------------------
My understanding is like David's: I think Bundle.loadClass should not return
null as this sounds unexpected, although the specification is not entirely
clear. So I would sort this under the topic "managing expectations".
How about throwing a new "ClassLoadingCircularityDetectedException extends
ClassNotFoundException" ? This way callers get the "ClassNotFoundException"
while internally you can differentiate between the cases. Plus logging the
exception will properly indicate the actual problem: the circularity.
