How to make Java use my classloader for class resolution?

The problem was you were not loading anything using your custom classloader It asks it parent to load the class, so everything was being loaded by the main classloader.

One solution is to use the parent classloader (or the one that already knows where it is) to read the bytes of the class, then define it in the custom class loader.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
