You are probably aiming at a scheme based dispatching of classloader
URI. Cool feature! Shall we put this in an implementation of
RiverClassLoaderSpi?
schemes like: maven:, system:, http:, codeservice: spring to mind.
Yes, but lets play around with it in skunk. Dan's made some valid
points, I think we should use the simple implementation for now that
solves the immediate problem for release.
It could solve some long standing issues with URL scheme handlers which
inevitably must be visible to the system class loader and has existing
jar caching issues. Security also needs to be considered. See Java Bug
