AggregateClassLoader (Apache Brooklyn)

java.lang.Object
- java.lang.ClassLoader
- - org.apache.brooklyn.util.javalang.AggregateClassLoader

```
public class AggregateClassLoader
extends java.lang.ClassLoader
```
looks for classes and resources in the classloaders added here
similar to XStream's CompositeClassLoader, but also supporting resources, exposing more info, a few conveniences, and a nice toString

Method Summary

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`void`	`add(int index, java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)` Add a loader to the specific position in the search path.
`void`	`addFirst(java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)` Add a loader to the first position in the search path.
`void`	`addLast(java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)` Add a loader to the last position in the search path.
`java.util.List<java.lang.ClassLoader>`	`getList()` Deprecated. since 0.7.0
`java.net.URL`	`getResource(java.lang.String name)`
`java.util.Enumeration<java.net.URL>`	`getResources(java.lang.String name)`
`boolean`	`isEmpty()` True if nothing is in the list here
`java.util.Iterator<java.lang.ClassLoader>`	`iterator()`
`static AggregateClassLoader`	`newInstanceWithDefaultLoaders()` creates default instance, with classloaders of Object and AggregateClassLoader
`static AggregateClassLoader`	`newInstanceWithNoLoaders()` creates default instance, with no classloaders (assuming this instance will itself be nested, or defaults will be added by caller)
`void`	`reset(java.util.Collection<? extends java.lang.ClassLoader> newClassLoaders)` Resets the classloader shown here to be the given set
`java.lang.String`	`toString()`

  - newInstanceWithDefaultLoaders
```
public static AggregateClassLoader newInstanceWithDefaultLoaders()
```
    creates default instance, with classloaders of Object and AggregateClassLoader
  - newInstanceWithNoLoaders
```
public static AggregateClassLoader newInstanceWithNoLoaders()
```
    creates default instance, with no classloaders (assuming this instance will itself be nested, or defaults will be added by caller)
  - addFirst
```
public void addFirst(java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)
```
    Add a loader to the first position in the search path.
  - addLast
```
public void addLast(java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)
```
    Add a loader to the last position in the search path.
  - add
```
public void add(int index,
       java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)
```
    Add a loader to the specific position in the search path. (It is callers responsibility to ensure that position is valid.)
  - reset
```
public void reset(java.util.Collection<? extends java.lang.ClassLoader> newClassLoaders)
```
    Resets the classloader shown here to be the given set

  - getList
```
@Deprecated
public java.util.List<java.lang.ClassLoader> getList()
```
    Deprecated. since 0.7.0
    
    Returns the _live_ (and modifiable) list of classloaders; dangerous and discouraged.
