All Implemented Interfaces:

AuditLoggingComponent

public class IsolatedConnectorProviderBase
extends ConnectorProviderBase

IsolatedConnectorProviderBase provides extensions to ConnectorProviderBase that uses a custom class loader to load the connector class in getConnector. This custom class loader give preference to the classes in the same JAR file as the connector provider's implementation over other classes on the class path. Note: this process assumes that the connector class is not already loaded through a reference in the connector providers implementation - ie private static final String connectorClassName should be set to a literal string.
