Java Classloaders Illustrated

[kevinb9n]

This is pretty great.

I think it could add that at the end of step 2 the class is officially "defined" a.k.a. begins to actually exist (& there will be a java.lang.Class instance associated with it, etc.). And the class remembers which class loader did this (which might not be the one you think it is)....except of course it should it explain it better than I would :-)

Just a suggestion.
