Cassandra resolves pluggable extensions by class name from configuration,
schema, and tooling inputs. These names were loaded with an initializing
Class.forName(name) and type-checked only afterward, so the named class ran its
static initializer before its type was confirmed. After this change such
classes will be loaded without initialization, verified against the expected
interface or base class, and initialized only through normal use after
validation.
A shared FBUtilities.classForNameWithoutInitialization helper and typed
instanceOrConstruct/construct overloads apply this to the configurable
extension points loaded by class name: the authentication, authorization,
role-management, network and internode-authenticator backends, the partitioner,
audit logger, configuration loader, seed provider, snitch, abstract types,
secondary and custom indexes, compaction strategy, compressor, replication
strategy, SASI analyzers, key and cache providers, query handler, storage and
stream hooks, tracing, the JMX authorization proxy, MBeans, the monotonic
clock, nodetool Sjk, triggers, the sstableloader and stress class options, and
diagnostic event classes (loaded without initialization and checked against
DiagnosticEvent, preserving the InvalidClassException contract and the existing
package restriction).
Regression tests confirm that an invalid-type load is rejected without
initializing the target class, and that valid implementations still resolve.
Hadoop client integration and hard-coded JDK and internal class probes are
left unchanged.
