      oracle.ide.net.URLClassPathThread

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable

public class URLClassPathThread

extends java.lang.Thread

This is a subclass of Thread that uses a different classpath than its parent thread. The classpath is specified by an instance of URLPath. One example of how this class can be used:

    //  First, create a URLPath object which represents the class path.
    URLPath urlPath = new URLPath();
    try
    {
      //  Add directory to urlPath.
      urlPath.addEntry( URLFactory.newFileURL( "C:\\classes" ) );

      //  Add jar to urlPath.
      urlPath.addEntry( URLFactory.newFileURL( "C:\\lib\\rt.jar" ) );
    }
    catch ( java.net.MalformedURLException e )
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }

    //  Second, create a Runnable object.
    Runnable runnable = new Runnable()
    {
      public void run()
      {
        //  The code that runs with the custom classpath goes here.
      }
    };

    //  Now create the ClassPathThread and start it.
    ClassPathThread t = new ClassPathThread( urlPath, runnable );
    t.start();

public URLClassPathThread(URLPath urlPath,
                          java.lang.Runnable target)

Creates a new URLClassPathThread that runs the given target using the given URLPath as its classpath. The URLClassPathThread uses only the URLPath as its classpath. Specifically, the URLClassPathThread will not fall back to the JVM's boot classpath if a resource cannot be found on the URLPath.

run

public final void run()

Invokes the run method of the target that was specified when the URLClassPathThread object was constructed.
