Re: URLLoader / RemoteURLLoader

["Martin Schlienger" <m.schlienger@xxxxxxxxx>]

No I am currently using full classpath and this class is present. The
only think I've done is calling addURL. It doesn't even try to load the
class (never call loadClass from ClassLoader, I put some debug output
in these methods). What should be the right way to make URLClassLoader
use http url?

The various Loader classes are used to handle particular URL types.
RemoteURLLoader is used for things other than file: and jar:.

That class is part of Classpath.  Did you remove it as part of your
size reduction?  All the files in that package are needed for http: to
work.

Nope, it should be pretty easy.  Really you shouldn't have to modify
URLClassLoader at all.
