## Class ReloadingClassLoader

- java.lang.Object
- - java.lang.ClassLoader
  - - com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.classloader.ReloadingClassLoader

-     public class ReloadingClassLoader
      extends ClassLoader

  The ReloadingClassLoader uses a delegation mechanism to allow classes to be reloaded. That means that loadClass calls may return different results if the class was changed in the underlying ResourceStore.
