Java's linking model enables you to design class loaders that extend your application in custom ways at runtime. Through class loaders, subclasses of java.lang.ClassLoader, your application can load and dynamically link to classes and interfaces that were unknown or did not even exist when your application was compiled. This talk gives an overview of Java's linking model and explains how to write class loaders. The talk covers the process of linking a new type inside the JVM runtime, describes constant pool resolution, explains name spaces, and walks you through several code examples of class loaders and the applications that use them.
