Class loader proxy

Class loader proxy would be useful to share plugins services among different plugins. For example, let's say you have two plugins, chat-portlet and knowledge-base-portlet. Each one has its own WAR file. One of them, let's say chat-portlet, has a service named StatusLocalService and the service layer StatusLocalServiceUtil. Moreover, the second portlet, let's say knowledge-base-portlet, needs to use the service StatusLocalServiceUtil.getStatuses in order to find out who is online or offline. The class loader proxy class can achieve these requirements easily.

Note

Note that the portal core and built-in portlets services were deployed on an application server global lib, while the plugin services were deployed on the plugin's lib by default. It is also possible that you can deploy the plugin services on an application server global lib, thus these services will be shared among other plugins, even the portal core and built-in portlets.
