thx for your answer ... i want to load classes from directory which isn't in classpath of tomcat
I've done a lot of dynamic class loading ... and have never needed to
use a custom class loader ('cept one time when I stored them in a DB ...
don't go there!). I would re-evaluate why you need a class loader
rather than Class.forName( "someClassName" ).newInstance().
My gut feeling is, if you don't know all about class loaders, you don't
need to use one (explicitly).
My 2p
