原文

在前一篇文章 初步了解ClassLoader 里提到了委托模型(又称双亲委派模型),解释了ClassLoader hierarchy(层级)处理类加载的过程。那么class文件是如何变成Class对象的呢?

Class的加载过程

Class加载分为这几步:

  1. 创建和加载(Creation and Loading)
  2. 链接(Linking)

    1. 验证(Verification)
    2. 准备(Preparation)
    3. 解析(Resolution),此步骤可选
  3. 初始化(Initialization)

注: 前面说了数组类是虚拟机直接创建的,以上过程不适用于数组类。

创建和加载(Creation and Loading)

何时会触发一个类的加载?

Java Language Specification - 12.1.1. Load the Class Test

The initial attempt to execute the method main of class Test discovers that the class Test is not loaded - that is, that the Java Virtual Machine does not currently contain a binary representation for this class. The Java Virtual Machine then uses a class loader to attempt to find such a binary representation.

也就是说,当要用到一个类,JVM发现还没有包含这个类的二进制形式(字节)时,就会使用ClassLoader尝试查找这个类的二进制形式。

我们知道ClassLoader委托模型,也就是说实际触发加载的ClassLoader和真正加载的ClassLoader可能不是同一个,JVM将它们称之为 initiating loaderdefining loaderJava Virtual Machine Specification - 5.3. Creation and Loading ):

A class loader L may create C by defining it directly or by delegating to another class loader. If L creates C directly, we say that L defines C or, equivalently, that L is the defining loader of C.

When one class loader delegates to another class loader, the loader that initiates the loading is not necessarily the same loader that completes the loading and defines the class. If L creates C, either by defining it directly or by delegation, we say that L initiates loading of C or, equivalently, that L is an initiating loader of C.

那么当A类使用B类的时候,B类使用的是哪个ClassLoader呢?

Java Virtual Machine Specification - 5.3. Creation and Loading

The Java Virtual Machine uses one of three procedures to create class or interface C denoted by N:

  • If N denotes a nonarray class or an interface, one of the two following methods is used to load and thereby create C:

    • If D was defined by the bootstrap class loader, then the bootstrap class loader initiates loading of C (§5.3.1).
    • If D was defined by a user-defined class loader, then that same user-defined class loader initiates loading of C (§5.3.2).
  • Otherwise N denotes an array class. An array class is created directly by the Java Virtual Machine (§5.3.3), not by a class loader. However, the defining class loader of D is used in the process of creating array class C.

注:上文的C和D都是类,N则是C的名字。

也就说如果D用到C,且C还没有被加载,且C不是数组,那么:

  1. 如果D的defining loader是bootstrap class loader,那么C的initiating loader就是bootstrap class loader。
  2. 如果D的defining loader是自定义的class loader X,那么C的initiating loader就是X。

再总结一下就是:如果D用到C,且C还没有被加载,且C不是数组,那么C的initiating loader就是D的defining loader。

用下面的代码观察一下:

// 把这个项目打包然后放到/tmp目录下
public class CreationAndLoading {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    // ucl1的parent是bootstrap class loader
    URLClassLoader ucl1 = new NamedURLClassLoader("user-defined 1", new URL[] { new URL("file:///tmp/classloader.jar") }, null);
    // ucl1是ucl2的parent
    URLClassLoader ucl2 = new NamedURLClassLoader("user-defined 2", new URL[0], ucl1);
    Class<?> fooClass2 = ucl2.loadClass("me.chanjar.javarelearn.classloader.Foo");
    fooClass2.newInstance();
  }
}

public class Foo {
  public Foo() {
    System.out.println("Foo's classLoader: " + Foo.class.getClassLoader());
    System.out.println("Bar's classLoader: " + Bar.class.getClassLoader());
  }
}

public class NamedURLClassLoader extends URLClassLoader {
  private String name;
  public NamedURLClassLoader(String name, URL[] urls, ClassLoader parent) {
    super(urls, parent);
    this.name = name;
  }
  @Override
  protected Class<?> findClass(String name) throws ClassNotFoundException {
    System.out.println("ClassLoader: " + this.name + " findClass(" + name + ")");
    return super.findClass(name);
  }
  @Override
  public Class<?> loadClass(String name) throws ClassNotFoundException {
    System.out.println("ClassLoader: " + this.name + " loadClass(" + name + ")");
    return super.loadClass(name);
  }
  @Override
  public String toString() {
    return name;
  }
}

运行结果是:

ClassLoader: user-defined 2 loadClass(me.chanjar.javarelearn.classloader.Foo)
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 findClass(me.chanjar.javarelearn.classloader.Foo)
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 loadClass(java.lang.Object)
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 loadClass(java.lang.System)
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 loadClass(java.lang.StringBuilder)
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 loadClass(java.lang.Class)
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 loadClass(java.io.PrintStream)
Foo's classLoader: user-defined 1
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 loadClass(me.chanjar.javarelearn.classloader.Bar)
ClassLoader: user-defined 1 findClass(me.chanjar.javarelearn.classloader.Bar)
Bar's classLoader: user-defined 1

可以注意到 Foo 的initiating loader是user-defined 2,但是defining loader是user-defined 1。而 Bar 的initiating loader与defining loader则直接是user-defined 1,绕过了user-defined 2。观察结果符合预期。

链接

验证(Verification)

验证类的二进制形式在结构上是否正确。

准备(Preparation)

为类创建静态字段,并且为这些静态字段初始化默认值。

解析(Resolution)

JVM在运行时会为每个类维护一个run-time constant pool,run-time constant pool构建自类的二进制形式里的 constant_pool 表。run-time constant pool里的所有引用一开始都是符号引用(symbolic reference)(见 Java Virutal Machine Specification - 5.1. The Run-Time Constant Pool )。符号引用就是并非真正引用(即引用内存地址),只是指向了一个名字而已(就是字符串)。解析阶段做的事情就是将符号引用转变成实际引用)。

Java Virutal Machine Specification - 5.4. Linking

This specification allows an implementation flexibility as to when linking activities (and, because of recursion, loading) take place, provided that all of the following properties are maintained:

  1. A class or interface is completely loaded before it is linked.
  2. A class or interface is completely verified and prepared before it is initialized.

也就是说仅要求:

  1. 一个类在被链接之前得是完全加载的。
  2. 一个类在被初始化之前得是被完全验证和准备的。

所以对于解析的时机JVM Spec没有作出太多规定,只说了以下JVM指令在执行之前需要解析符号引用:_anewarray_, checkcast_, _getfield_, _getstatic_, _instanceof_, _invokedynamic_, _invokeinterface_, _invokespecial_, _invokestatic_, _invokevirtual_, _ldc_, _ldc_w_, _multianewarray_, _new_, _putfieldputstatic

看不懂没关系,大致意思就是,用到字段、用到方法、用到静态方法、new类等时候需要解析符号引用。

初始化

如果直接赋值的静态字段被 final 所修饰,并且它的类型是基本类型或字符串时,那么该字段便会被 Java 编译器标记成常量值(ConstantValue),其初始化直接由 Java 虚拟机完成。除此之外的直接赋值操作,以及所有静态代码块中的代码,则会被 Java 编译器置于同一方法中,并把它命为 <clinit>cl ass init )。

JVM 规范枚举了下述类的初始化时机是:

  1. 当虚拟机启动时,初始化用户指定的主类;
  2. new 某个类的时候
  3. 调用某类的静态方法时
  4. 访问某类的静态字段时
  5. 子类初始化会触发父类初始化
  6. 用反射API对某个类进行调用时
  7. 一个接口定义了default方法(原文是non-abstract、non-static方法),某个实现了这个接口的类被初始化,那么这个接口也会被初始化
  8. 初次调用 MethodHandle 实例时

注意:这里没有提到new 数组的情况,所以new 数组的时候不会初始化类。

同时类的初始化过程是线程安全的,下面是一个利用上述时机4和线程安全特性做的延迟加载的Singleton的例子:

public class Singleton {
  private Singleton() {}
  private static class LazyHolder {
    static final Singleton INSTANCE = new Singleton();
  }
  public static Singleton getInstance() {
    return LazyHolder.INSTANCE;
  }
}

这种做法被称为 Initialization-on-demand holder idiom

类加载常见异常

ClassNotFoundException

Java Virutal Machine Specification - 5.3.1. Loading Using the Bootstrap Class Loader

If no purported representation of C is found, loading throws an instance of ClassNotFoundException .

Java Virutal Machine Specification - 5.3.2. Loading Using a User-defined Class Loader

When the loadClass method of the class loader L is invoked with the name N of a class or interface C to be loaded, L must perform one of the following two operations in order to load C:

  1. The class loader L can create an array of bytes representing C as the bytes of a ClassFile structure (§4.1); it then must invoke the method defineClass of class ClassLoader. Invoking defineClass causes the Java Virtual Machine to derive a class or interface denoted by N using L from the array of bytes using the algorithm found in §5.3.5.
  2. The class loader L can delegate the loading of C to some other class loader L'. This is accomplished by passing the argument N directly or indirectly to an invocation of a method on L' (typically the loadClass method). The result of the invocation is C.

In either (1) or (2), if the class loader L is unable to load a class or interface denoted by N for any reason, it must throw an instance of ClassNotFoundException.

所以, ClassNotFoundException 发生在【加载阶段】:

ClassNotFoundException
ClassNotFoundException

NoClassDefFoundError

Java Virtual Machine Specification - 5.3. Creation and Loading

If the Java Virtual Machine ever attempts to load a class C during verification (§5.4.1) or resolution (§5.4.3) (but not initialization (§5.5)), and the class loader that is used to initiate loading of C throws an instance of ClassNotFoundException , then the Java Virtual Machine must throw an instance of NoClassDefFoundError whose cause is the instance of ClassNotFoundException .

(A subtlety here is that recursive class loading to load superclasses is performed as part of resolution (§5.3.5, step 3). Therefore, a ClassNotFoundException that results from a class loader failing to load a superclass must be wrapped in a NoClassDefFoundError .)

Java Virtual Machine Specification - 5.3.5. Deriving a Class from a class File Representation

Otherwise, if the purported representation does not actually represent a class named N , loading throws an instance of NoClassDefFoundError or an instance of one of its subclasses.

Java Virtual Machine Specification - 5.5. Initialization

If the Class object for C is in an erroneous state, then initialization is not possible. Release LC and throw a NoClassDefFoundError .

所以, NoClassDefFoundError 发生在:

  1. 【加载阶段】,因其他类的【验证】or【解析】触发对C类的【加载】,此时发生了 ClassNotFoundException ,那么就要抛出 NoClassDefFoundError ,cause 是 ClassNotFoundException
  2. 【加载阶段】,在【解析】superclass的过程中发生的 ClassNotFoundException 也必须包在 NoClassDefFoundError 里。
  3. 【加载阶段】,发现找到的二进制里的类名和要找的类名不一致时,抛出 NoClassDefFoundError
  4. 【初始化阶段】,如果C类的Class对象处于错误状态,那么抛出 NoClassDefFoundError

追踪类的加载

可以在JVM启动时添加 -verbose:class 来打印类加载过程。
