I think the suggestion was to merge the functionality, not just combine the similar but different functionality into the same class. In other words, all tests should use common APIs to handle class unloading, not different methods that happen to be in the same class. Given the differences you have found in the two implementations and how they are used by the tests, I'm not so sure the disruption to the tests (and risk of introducing bugs) is worth it. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/29545#issuecomment-3875177130
