+/**
+ * A class loader is an object that is responsible for loading classes. The
+ * class {@code ClassLoader} is an abstract class.  Given the <a
+ * href="#name">binary name</a> of a class, a class loader should attempt to
+ * locate or generate data that constitutes a definition for the class.  A
+ * typical strategy is to transform the name into a file name and then read a
+ * "class file" of that name from a file system.
+ *
+ * <p> Every {@link java.lang.Class Class} object contains a {@link
+ * Class#getClassLoader() reference} to the {@code ClassLoader} that defined
+ * it.
+ *
+ * <p> {@code Class} objects for array classes are not created by class
+ * loaders, but are created automatically as required by the Java runtime.
+ * The class loader for an array class, as returned by {@link
+ * Class#getClassLoader()} is the same as the class loader for its element
+ * type; if the element type is a primitive type, then the array class has no
+ * class loader.
+ *
+ * <p> Applications implement subclasses of {@code ClassLoader} in order to
+ * extend the manner in which the Java virtual machine dynamically loads
+ * classes.
+ *
+ * <p> Class loaders may typically be used by security managers to indicate
+ * security domains.
+ *
+ * <p> In addition to loading classes, a class loader is also responsible for
+ * locating resources. A resource is some data (a "{@code .class}" file,
+ * configuration data, or an image for example) that is identified with an
+ * abstract '/'-separated path name. Resources are typically packaged with an
+ * application or library so that they can be located by code in the
+ * application or library. In some cases, the resources are included so that
+ * they can be located by other libraries.
+ *
+ * <p> The {@code ClassLoader} class uses a delegation model to search for
+ * classes and resources.  Each instance of {@code ClassLoader} has an
+ * associated parent class loader. When requested to find a class or
+ * resource, a {@code ClassLoader} instance will usually delegate the search
+ * for the class or resource to its parent class loader before attempting to
+ * find the class or resource itself.
+ *
+ * <p> Class loaders that support concurrent loading of classes are known as
+ * <em>{@linkplain #isRegisteredAsParallelCapable() parallel capable}</em> class
+ * loaders and are required to register themselves at their class initialization
+ * time by invoking the {@link
+ * #registerAsParallelCapable ClassLoader.registerAsParallelCapable}
+ * method. Note that the {@code ClassLoader} class is registered as parallel
+ * capable by default. However, its subclasses still need to register themselves
+ * if they are parallel capable.
+ * In environments in which the delegation model is not strictly
+ * hierarchical, class loaders need to be parallel capable, otherwise class
+ * loading can lead to deadlocks because the loader lock is held for the
+ * duration of the class loading process (see {@link #loadClass
+ * loadClass} methods).
+ *
+ * <h3> <a id="builtinLoaders">Run-time Built-in Class Loaders</a></h3>
+ *
+ * The Java run-time has the following built-in class loaders:
+ *
+ * <ul>
+ * <li><p>Bootstrap class loader.
+ *     It is the virtual machine's built-in class loader, typically represented
+ *     as {@code null}, and does not have a parent.</li>
+ * <li><p>{@linkplain #getPlatformClassLoader() Platform class loader}.
+ *     All <em>platform classes</em> are visible to the platform class loader
+ *     that can be used as the parent of a {@code ClassLoader} instance.
+ *     Platform classes include Java SE platform APIs, their implementation
+ *     classes and JDK-specific run-time classes that are defined by the
+ *     platform class loader or its ancestors.
+ *     <p> To allow for upgrading/overriding of modules defined to the platform
+ *     class loader, and where upgraded modules read modules defined to class
+ *     loaders other than the platform class loader and its ancestors, then
+ *     the platform class loader may have to delegate to other class loaders,
+ *     the application class loader for example.
+ *     In other words, classes in named modules defined to class loaders
+ *     other than the platform class loader and its ancestors may be visible
+ *     to the platform class loader. </li>
+ * <li><p>{@linkplain #getSystemClassLoader() System class loader}.
+ *     It is also known as <em>application class loader</em> and is distinct
+ *     from the platform class loader.
+ *     The system class loader is typically used to define classes on the
+ *     application class path, module path, and JDK-specific tools.
+ *     The platform class loader is a parent or an ancestor of the system class
+ *     loader that all platform classes are visible to it.</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <p> Normally, the Java virtual machine loads classes from the local file
+ * system in a platform-dependent manner.
+ * However, some classes may not originate from a file; they may originate
+ * from other sources, such as the network, or they could be constructed by an
+ * application.  The method {@link #defineClass(String, byte[], int, int)
+ * defineClass} converts an array of bytes into an instance of class
+ * {@code Class}. Instances of this newly defined class can be created using
+ * {@link Class#newInstance Class.newInstance}.
+ *
+ * <p> The methods and constructors of objects created by a class loader may
+ * reference other classes.  To determine the class(es) referred to, the Java
+ * virtual machine invokes the {@link #loadClass loadClass} method of
+ * the class loader that originally created the class.
+ *
+ * <p> For example, an application could create a network class loader to
+ * download class files from a server.  Sample code might look like:
+ *
+ * <blockquote><pre>
+ *   ClassLoader loader&nbsp;= new NetworkClassLoader(host,&nbsp;port);
+ *   Object main&nbsp;= loader.loadClass("Main", true).newInstance();
+ *       &nbsp;.&nbsp;.&nbsp;.
+ * </pre></blockquote>
+ *
+ * <p> The network class loader subclass must define the methods {@link
+ * #findClass findClass} and {@code loadClassData} to load a class
+ * from the network.  Once it has downloaded the bytes that make up the class,
+ * it should use the method {@link #defineClass defineClass} to
+ * create a class instance.  A sample implementation is:
+ *
+ * <blockquote><pre>
+ *     class NetworkClassLoader extends ClassLoader {
+ *         String host;
+ *         int port;
+ *
+ *         public Class findClass(String name) {
+ *             byte[] b = loadClassData(name);
+ *             return defineClass(name, b, 0, b.length);
+ *         }
+ *
+ *         private byte[] loadClassData(String name) {
+ *             // load the class data from the connection
+ *             &nbsp;.&nbsp;.&nbsp;.
+ *         }
+ *     }
+ * </pre></blockquote>
+ *
+ * <h3> <a id="name">Binary names</a> </h3>
+ *
+ * <p> Any class name provided as a {@code String} parameter to methods in
+ * {@code ClassLoader} must be a binary name as defined by
+ * <cite>The Java&trade; Language Specification</cite>.
+ *
+ * <p> Examples of valid class names include:
+ * <blockquote><pre>
+ *   "java.lang.String"
+ *   "javax.swing.JSpinner$DefaultEditor"
+ *   "java.security.KeyStore$Builder$FileBuilder$1"
+ *   "java.net.URLClassLoader$3$1"
+ * </pre></blockquote>
+ *
+ * <p> Any package name provided as a {@code String} parameter to methods in
+ * {@code ClassLoader} must be either the empty string (denoting an unnamed package)
+ * or a fully qualified name as defined by
+ * <cite>The Java&trade; Language Specification</cite>.
+ *
+ * @jls 6.7  Fully Qualified Names
+ * @jls 13.1 The Form of a Binary
+ * @see      #resolveClass(Class)

+     * <p>
+     * If a class loader wishes to define a package with specific properties,

+     * specified by {@link Package}.
+     *
+     * @apiNote
+     * A class loader that wishes to define a package for classes in a JAR
+     * typically uses the specification and implementation titles, versions, and
+     * vendors from the JAR's manifest. If the package is specified as
+     * {@linkplain java.util.jar.Attributes.Name#SEALED sealed} in the JAR's manifest,
+     * the {@code URL} of the JAR file is typically used as the {@code sealBase}.
+     * If classes of package {@code 'p'} defined by this class loader
+     * are loaded from multiple JARs, the {@code Package} object may contain
+     * different information depending on the first class of package {@code 'p'}
+     * defined and which JAR's manifest is read first to explicitly define
+     * package {@code 'p'}.
+     *
+     * <p> It is strongly recommended that a class loader does not call this
+     * method to explicitly define packages in <em>named modules</em>; instead,
+     * the package will be automatically defined when a class is {@linkplain
+     * #defineClass(String, byte[], int, int, ProtectionDomain) being defined}.
+     * If it is desirable to define {@code Package} explicitly, it should ensure
+     * that all packages in a named module are defined with the properties
+     * specified by {@link Package}.  Otherwise, some {@code Package} objects
+     * in a named module may be for example sealed with different seal base.
