Class RMIClassLoaderProvider

java.lang.Object
  java.rmi.server.RMIClassLoaderSpi
      com.sun.faban.harness.agent.RMIClassLoaderProvider

public class RMIClassLoaderProvider
extends RMIClassLoaderSpi

The RMIClassLoaderProvider extends the RMIClassLoaderSpi and allows the agent to find the benchmark classes in-process. This is needed to execute remote commands from Java.

Method Detail

loadClass

public Class<?> loadClass(String codebase,
                          String name,
                          ClassLoader defaultLoader)
                   throws MalformedURLException,
                          ClassNotFoundException

Provides the implementation for RMIClassLoader.loadClass(java.net.URL,String), RMIClassLoader.loadClass(String,String), and RMIClassLoader.loadClass(String,String,ClassLoader).

Loads a class from a codebase URL path, optionally using the supplied loader.

Typically, a provider implementation will attempt to resolve the named class using the given defaultLoader, if specified, before attempting to resolve the class from the codebase URL path.

An implementation of this method must either return a class with the given name or throw an exception.

Specified by:

loadClass in class RMIClassLoaderSpi

Parameters:

codebase - the list of URLs (separated by spaces) to load the class from, or null

name - the name of the class to load

defaultLoader - additional contextual class loader to use, or null

Returns:

the Class object representing the loaded class

Throws:

MalformedURLException - if codebase is non-null and contains an invalid URL, or if codebase is null and a provider-specific URL used to load classes is invalid

ClassNotFoundException - if a definition for the class could not be found at the specified location.

loadProxyClass

public Class<?> loadProxyClass(String codebase,
                               String[] interfaces,
                               ClassLoader defaultLoader)
                        throws MalformedURLException,
                               ClassNotFoundException

Provides the implementation for RMIClassLoader.loadProxyClass(String,String[],ClassLoader).

Loads a dynamic proxy class (see Proxy that implements a set of interfaces with the given names from a codebase URL path, optionally using the supplied loader.

An implementation of this method must either return a proxy class that implements the named interfaces or throw an exception.

Specified by:

loadProxyClass in class RMIClassLoaderSpi

Parameters:

codebase - the list of URLs (space-separated) to load classes from, or null

interfaces - the names of the interfaces for the proxy class to implement

defaultLoader - additional contextual class loader to use, or null

Returns:

a dynamic proxy class that implements the named interfaces

Throws:

MalformedURLException - if codebase is non-null and contains an invalid URL, or if codebase is null and a provider-specific URL used to load classes is invalid

ClassNotFoundException - if a definition for one of the named interfaces could not be found at the specified location, or if creation of the dynamic proxy class failed (such as if Proxy.getProxyClass(ClassLoader,Class[]) would throw an IllegalArgumentException for the given interface list)

getClassLoader

public ClassLoader getClassLoader(String codebase)
                           throws MalformedURLException

Provides the implementation for RMIClassLoader.getClassLoader(String).

Returns a class loader that loads classes from the given codebase URL path.

If there is a security manger, its checkPermission method will be invoked with a RuntimePermission("getClassLoader") permission; this could result in a SecurityException. The implementation of this method may also perform further security checks to verify that the calling context has permission to connect to all of the URLs in the codebase URL path.

Specified by:

getClassLoader in class RMIClassLoaderSpi

Parameters:

codebase - the list of URLs (space-separated) from which the returned class loader will load classes from, or null

Returns:

a class loader that loads classes from the given codebase URL path

Throws:

MalformedURLException - if codebase is non-null and contains an invalid URL, or if codebase is null and a provider-specific URL used to identify the class loader is invalid

SecurityException - if there is a security manager and the invocation of its checkPermission method fails, or if the caller does not have permission to connect to all of the URLs in the codebase URL path

getClassAnnotation

public String getClassAnnotation(Class<?> cl)

Provides the implementation for RMIClassLoader.getClassAnnotation(Class).

Returns the annotation string (representing a location for the class definition) that RMI will use to annotate the class descriptor when marshalling objects of the given class.

Specified by:

getClassAnnotation in class RMIClassLoaderSpi

Parameters:

cl - the class to obtain the annotation for

Returns:

a string to be used to annotate the given class when it gets marshalled, or null

Throws:

NullPointerException - if cl is null
