Therefore I would like to change my current semantics and use as the

that string into an array of URLs but there is already a cache for that
(URL[] pathToURLs(String)).
Since it's a protected method, why not pass in both?
Looking at the specs for RMIClassLoader and RMIClassLoaderSpi I'm of the
opinion that codebase as String is the real discriminator here for
making decisions and that the usage of URL (instead of URI) in some of
the language is an unfortunate choice and I would rather steer away from
it than exposing it even more in the public API.
But I also believe that given previous discussions you are not going to
give me a high five for saying this, so if this satisfies everybody here
I'm totally fine with it.
