I'm making eclipse plug-in, and I need to access selected class from some random project in eclipse. I extracted selected file:
IPath className;
Object firstElement, firstElement1;
/* Setting service to track when some object is selected in active workbench */
ISelectionService service = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getSelectionService();
IStructuredSelection structured = (IStructuredSelection) service.getSelection();
/* Getting first element of selected structure (path and workspace)*/
firstElement = structured.getFirstElement();
IResource resource = (IResource) Platform.getAdapterManager().getAdapter(firstElement, IResource.class);
resource.getProjectRelativePath();
/* Extracting class name from selected object */
className = resource.getLocation();
String className1 = resource.getName();
className1 = FilenameUtils.removeExtension(className1);
After that I wanted to use URLClassLoader so I can get classes that file contains.
URL url;
try {
url = new URL("file:\\d:\\runtime-EclipseApplication\\TestingProject\\bin");
URLClassLoader ucl = new URLClassLoader(new URL[] { url });
Class<?> clazz = ucl.loadClass("org.eclipse.testing." + className1);
Object o = clazz.newInstance();
} catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
url output: "file:/d:/runtime-EclipseApplication/TestingProject/bin" but ucl doesn't contain any classes, and when I try loading class "ucl.loadClass(className1)" I get exeption

He doesn't see Test.class even tho it is on path d:\runtime-EclipseApplication\TestingProject\bin\ and in package org.eclipse.testing Tried changing path to 1. d:\runtime-EclipseApplication\TestingProject\bin\org\eclipse\testing 2. d:\runtime-EclipseApplication\TestingProject\bin\org\eclipse\testing\ 3. d:\runtime-EclipseApplication\TestingProject\bin\
Also tried switching from \ to /, file:\\, file:\, "classes = new URL("d:/runtime-EclipseApplication/TestingProject/bin/"); URL[] cp = {f.toURI().toURL()};"
"ucl.loadClass(className1);"
Nothing works, it still doesn't see any classes in folder bin. Maybe I'm looking at wrong place for project classes. When i run my plug-in (in development) like Eclipse Application, I get new Eclipse window where when I select class from some project (different location than plug-in), menu opens and when i select generate test, it is suppose to get me that class in plug-in so I can access and list it's methods, problem is I can't access class. Only way I found is using URLClassLoader, but yeah I got stuck with this, he can't see class. Any suggestions, proposals, links? thanks
Try ending your path with a /
. As the docs for URLClassLoader(URL[])
say:
Any URL that ends with a
/
is assumed to refer to a directory. Otherwise, the URL is assumed to refer to a JAR file which will be downloaded and opened as needed.
Specifically:
URL url;
try {
url = new URL("file:///d:/runtime-EclipseApplication/TestingProject/bin/");
URLClassLoader ucl = new URLClassLoader(new URL[] { url });
Class<?> clazz = ucl.loadClass("org.eclipse.testing." + className1);
Object o = clazz.newInstance();
} catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
