另一个来自Allain的黑客解决方案版本，也适用于JDK 11:

File file = ...
URL url = file.toURI().toURL();
URLClassLoader sysLoader = new URLClassLoader(new URL[0]);

Method sysMethod = URLClassLoader.class.getDeclaredMethod("addURL", new Class[]{URL.class});
sysMethod.setAccessible(true);
sysMethod.invoke(sysLoader, new Object[]{url});

在JDK 11上，它给出了一些弃用警告，但对于那些在JDK 11上使用Allain解决方案的人来说，它只是一个临时解决方案。

下面是一个未弃用的版本。我修改了原始版本，删除了不推荐使用的功能。

        DymamicLoadingTest instance = (DymamicLoadingTest)cs.newInstance();

下面的解决方案有点笨拙，因为它使用反射来绕过封装，但它工作得完美无缺:

File file = ...
URL url = file.toURI().toURL();

URLClassLoader classLoader = (URLClassLoader)ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader();
Method method = URLClassLoader.class.getDeclaredMethod("addURL", URL.class);
method.setAccessible(true);
method.invoke(classLoader, url);

我知道我来晚了，但我一直在使用pf4j，这是一个插件框架，它工作得非常好。

PF4J是一个微框架，其目标是保持核心简单但可扩展。

一个插件使用的例子:

在你的应用/插件中使用ExtensionPoint接口标记定义一个扩展点:

public interface Greeting extends ExtensionPoint {

    String getGreeting();

}

使用@Extension注释创建一个扩展:

@Extension
public class WelcomeGreeting implements Greeting {

    public String getGreeting() {
        return "Welcome";
    }

}

然后你可以加载和卸载插件，如你所愿:

public static void main(String[] args) {

    // create the plugin manager
    PluginManager pluginManager = new JarPluginManager(); // or "new ZipPluginManager() / new DefaultPluginManager()"

    // start and load all plugins of application
    pluginManager.loadPlugins();
    pluginManager.startPlugins();

    // retrieve all extensions for "Greeting" extension point
    List<Greeting> greetings = pluginManager.getExtensions(Greeting.class);
    for (Greeting greeting : greetings) {
        System.out.println(">>> " + greeting.getGreeting());
    }

    // stop and unload all plugins
    pluginManager.stopPlugins();
    pluginManager.unloadPlugins();

}

欲了解更多细节，请参阅文档

对于jar文件的动态上传，您可以使用我对URLClassLoader的修改。这种修改对于在应用程序操作期间更改jar文件没有问题，就像标准的URLClassloader一样。所有加载的jar文件都加载到RAM中，因此独立于原始文件。

内存中的jar和JDBC类装入器

jodonnell提出的解决方案很好，但应该稍加改进。我用这篇文章成功地开发了我的应用程序。

分配当前线程

首先我们要加上

Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(classLoader);

否则你将无法加载资源(如spring/context.xml)存储到jar。

不包括

你的罐子放入父类装入器中，否则你将无法理解谁装入了什么。

请参见使用URLClassLoader重新加载jar的问题

然而，OSGi框架仍然是最好的方法。
