java虚拟机类加载器ClassLoad源码分析loadClass()

加载指定名称(包括包名)的二进制类型，该方法在JDK1.2后不再建议用户重写，但用户可以直接调用该方法，loadClass()方法是ClassLoader类自己实现的，该方法中的逻辑就是双亲委派模式的实现

public Class<?> loadClass(String name) throws ClassNotFoundException {
    return loadClass(name, false);
}

调用重载的loadClass(String name, boolean resolve)是一个重载方法，resolve参数代表是否生成class对象的同时进行解析相关操作

protected Class<?> loadClass(String name, boolean resolve)
    throws ClassNotFoundException
{
    synchronized (getClassLoadingLock(name)) {     // 加锁
        // First, check if the class has already been loaded
        // 从缓存中找是否加载过，加载过就返回对应的Class，没加载过就返回null
        Class<?> c = findLoadedClass(name);
        if (c == null) {
            long t0 = System.nanoTime();
            try {
                if (parent != null) {
                    c = parent.loadClass(name, false);  // 找他的父类递归调用
                } else {
                    c = findBootstrapClassOrNull(name); // 扩展类加载器没有父类加载器，看引导类加载器是否可加载
                }
            } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
                // ClassNotFoundException thrown if class not found
                // from the non-null parent class loader
            }

            if (c == null) {   // 如果上面都没有加载到
                // If still not found, then invoke findClass in order
                // to find the class.
                long t1 = System.nanoTime();
                c = findClass(name);  // 原方法抛异常，需要子类重写实现自定义加载器

                // this is the defining class loader; record the stats
                sun.misc.PerfCounter.getParentDelegationTime().addTime(t1 - t0);
                sun.misc.PerfCounter.getFindClassTime().addElapsedTimeFrom(t1);
                sun.misc.PerfCounter.getFindClasses().increment();
            }
        }
        if (resolve) {
            resolveClass(c);
        }
        return c;
    }
}
