Direct Known Subclasses:
ComponentClassLoader
public abstract class CustomClassLoader extends ClassLoader
To parse custom classloader details from a XML definition, this is an example for a basic configuration: 
  <ClassLoader jarDir="{pathToLibraries}">
If the classloader properties should be configurable by the user in the Flow Designer, properties with the following names can be added to the classloader configuration:
  • "Jarfile": a single jar file to add
  • "JarfilesDir": a directory containing jar files
The classloader configuration might look like this: 
  <ClassLoader jarDir="{pathToLibraries}">
    <Property initialState="collapse" name="ClassloaderDetails" type="group" unfold="true">
      <Property name="Jarfile" type="remoteFile"/>
      <Property name="JarfilesDir" type="remoteFile"/>
    </Property>
  </ClassLoader>
The following lists describe all available attributes and elements of the classloader configuration.

  • classLoaderClass: The custom classloader implementation class. Default: com.infoteria.asteria.flowengine2.flow.ComponentClassLoader.
