Class ClassPathExtender

java.lang.Object

slash.common.jarinjar.ClassPathExtender

public class ClassPathExtender
extends Object

Creates a ClassLoader that allows to include JARs in the classpath and in the file systems. Works fine for Java 7 and 8 but not with Java 9 due to the classpath/module changes.
