... of course... not right now :)
JPDA in JDK 1.4 doesn't not support defining new methods. This sucks.
hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Have you ever looked into the mechanisms that applications use to reload.??
Very ugly stuff. At least with JPDA I feel WAY more confident.
... and no... you can't REMOVE classes but neither can anything else.
Application server reloaders can't remove a class either. It is just defined in
an orphaned ClassLoader.
With this mechanism the class will remain in the same classloader but won't be
called.

Hm... I put that on the TODO list. It is a good point. I can directly invoke
methods on the remote ClassLoader via ObjectReference.invoke. It does appear
that you can define classes that aren't available otherwise.
I could probably find out a way to include resources.
