Interface DelegatingCallable<V,T extends Throwable>

All Superinterfaces:

Callable<V,T>, Serializable

public interface DelegatingCallable<V,T extends Throwable>
extends Callable<V,T>

Callable that nominates another claassloader for serialization.

For various reasons, one Callable object (and all the objects reachable from it) is serialized by one classloader. By default, the classloader that loaded Callable object itself is used, but when Callable object refers to other objects that are loaded by other classloaders, this will fail to deserialize on the remote end.

In such a case, implement this interface, instead of plain Callable and return a classloader that can see all the classes. In case of Hudson, PluginManager.uberClassLoader is a good candidate.
