聊聊java9的classloader

序

本文主要研究一下java9的classloader

java9之前的classloader

• bootstrap classloader加载rt.jar，jre/lib/endorsed
• ext classloader加载jre/lib/ext
• application classloader加载-cp指定的类

java9及之后的classloader

• bootstrap classloader加载lib/modules

java.base                   java.security.sasl
java.datatransfer           java.xml
java.desktop                jdk.httpserver
java.instrument             jdk.internal.vm.ci
java.logging                jdk.management
java.management             jdk.management.agent
java.management.rmi         jdk.naming.rmi
java.naming                 jdk.net
java.prefs                  jdk.sctp
java.rmi                    jdk.unsupported

• ext classloader更名为platform classloader，加载lib/modules

java.activation*            jdk.accessibility

java.corba*                 jdk.crypto.cryptoki
java.scripting              jdk.crypto.ec
java.se                     jdk.dynalink
java.se.ee                  jdk.incubator.httpclient
java.security.jgss          jdk.internal.vm.compiler*
java.smartcardio            jdk.jsobject
java.sql                    jdk.localedata
java.sql.rowset             jdk.naming.dns
java.transaction*           jdk.scripting.nashorn
java.xml.bind*              jdk.security.auth
java.xml.crypto             jdk.security.jgss
java.xml.ws*                jdk.xml.dom
java.xml.ws.annotation*     jdk.zipfs

• application classloader加载-cp，-mp指定的类

jdk.aot                     jdk.jdeps
jdk.attach                  jdk.jdi
jdk.compiler                jdk.jdwp.agent
jdk.editpad                 jdk.jlink
jdk.hotspot.agent           jdk.jshell
jdk.internal.ed             jdk.jstatd
jdk.internal.jvmstat        jdk.pack
jdk.internal.le             jdk.policytool
jdk.internal.opt            jdk.rmic
jdk.jartool                 jdk.scripting.nashorn.shell
jdk.javadoc                 jdk.xml.bind*
jdk.jcmd                    jdk.xml.ws*
jdk.jconsole

小结

java9模块化之后，对classloader有所改造，其中一点就是将ext classloader改为platform classloader，另外模块化之后，对应的classloader加载各自对应的模块。
