Na Li commented on SENTRY-1572:
-------------------------------

[~xinrantinney] I think the reason the code load class is to avoid dependency 
loop. If we want to load the class directly, you may consider to create a new 
project for SentryMain, and let it depend on all other sentry projects. In this 
way, you can avoid dependency loop. 

> SentryMain() shouldn't dynamically load tool class

> TheSentryMain class currently works by mapping the command name to a Java 
> class that is then dynamically loaded:
> {code}
>     String commandName = commandLine.getOptionValue(COMMAND);
>     String commandClazz = COMMANDS.get(commandName);
>     Object command;
>     try {
>       command = Class.forName(commandClazz.trim()).newInstance();
>     } catch (Exception e) {
>       String msg = "Could not create instance of " + commandClazz + " for 
> command " + commandName;
>       throw new IllegalStateException(msg, e);
>     }
>     if (!(command instanceof Command)) {
>       String msg = "Command " + command.getClass().getName() + " is not an 
> instance of "
>           + Command.class.getName();
>       throw new IllegalStateException(msg);
>     }
>     ((Command)command).run(commandLine.getArgs());
>   }
> {code}
> This ia too complicated and causes subtle problems at runtime. Instead it 
> should just create a new instance of appropriate class and call it directly.
