Interface AgentBuilder.CircularityLock

All Known Implementing Classes:
AgentBuilder.CircularityLock.Default, AgentBuilder.CircularityLock.Global, AgentBuilder.CircularityLock.Inactive
Enclosing interface:
AgentBuilder
public static interface AgentBuilder.CircularityLock
A circularity lock is responsible for preventing that a ClassFileLocator is used recursively. This can happen when a class file transformation causes another class to be loaded. Without avoiding such circularities, a class loading is aborted by a ClassCircularityError which causes the class loading to fail.
