Configuring class loaders and libraries for Java EE applications
By default, each application can access a set of provided APIs and its own internal classes and libraries. You can override the default settings, and configure class loading for each application.
The latest documentation about class loader configuration for Liberty is available on the Open Liberty website.
About this task
Each Java™ EE application has its own class loader in a running Liberty server. Liberty assumes some default settings for all Java EE applications, so that they can access the supported specification APIs (for example the servlet APIs if the servlet feature is enabled), and the IBM® APIs. By default, each application can access these provided APIs and access its own internal classes and libraries. If you have to override the default settings and configure class loading for your application, complete one or more of the following tasks.
