public class ClassPathLoader
extends java.lang.Object

Core of the bytecode analyzer. It loads classes from a given classpath.

Nested Class Summary
`static interface` `ClassPathLoader.FileLoader` the interface to implement to look up for specific resources

Field Summary
`static ClassPathLoader.FileLoader` `NULL_LOADER`

Constructor Summary
`ClassPathLoader(java.io.File[] entries)` create a new instance with a given set of urls
`ClassPathLoader(java.lang.String classPath)` create a new instance with a given classpath.
`ClassPathLoader(java.lang.String[] entries)` create a new instance with a given set of urls.

Method Summary
`static java.io.InputStream` `getCachedStream(java.io.InputStream is)` useful methods to read the whole input stream in memory so that it can be accessed faster.
`java.util.Hashtable` `getClasses()` return the whole set of classes in the classpath.
`java.util.Enumeration` `loaders()`

Methods inherited from class java.lang.Object
`clone, equals, finalize, getClass, hashCode, notify, notifyAll, toString, wait, wait, wait`

Field Detail

### NULL_LOADER

    public static final ClassPathLoader.FileLoader NULL_LOADER

Constructor Detail

### ClassPathLoader

    public ClassPathLoader(java.lang.String classPath)

  create a new instance with a given classpath. It must be urls separated by the platform specific path separator.

Parameters:
  `classPath` - the classpath to load all the classes from.

### ClassPathLoader

    public ClassPathLoader(java.lang.String[] entries)

  create a new instance with a given set of urls.

Parameters:
  `entries` - valid file urls (either .jar, .zip or directory)

### ClassPathLoader

    public ClassPathLoader(java.io.File[] entries)

  create a new instance with a given set of urls

Parameters:
  `entries` - file urls to look for classes (.jar, .zip or directory)

Method Detail

### loaders

    public java.util.Enumeration loaders()

  Returns:
    the set of `FileLoader` loaders matching the given classpath.

### getClasses

    public java.util.Hashtable getClasses()
                                   throws java.io.IOException

  return the whole set of classes in the classpath. Note that this method can be very resource demanding since it must load all bytecode from all classes in all resources in the classpath at a time. To process it in a less resource demanding way, it is maybe better to use the `loaders()` that will return loader one by one.

  Returns:
    the hashtable containing ALL classes that are found in the given classpath. Note that the first entry of a given classname will shadow classes with the same name (as a classloader does)
    `java.io.IOException`

### getCachedStream

    public static java.io.InputStream getCachedStream(java.io.InputStream is)
                                               throws java.io.IOException

  useful methods to read the whole input stream in memory so that it can be accessed faster. Processing rt.jar and tools.jar from JDK 1.3.1 brings time from 50s to 7s.

    `java.io.IOException`
