Abstract
Methods and apparatus for loading and unloading classes associated with an application are disclosed. A class loader adapted for loading classes associated with an application is constructed. The class loader is employed to load one or more classes associated with the application such that the class loader maintains a reference to the one or more classes. The class loader for the application is then de-referenced such that the class loader is unreachable.
