What are application level classes in Java?


I am a beginner in java, I just started reading about JVM internals. I was going through the hierarchy of class loaders. I found out that system class loader takes care of loading all the application level classes into the JVM. So I want to know what are the application level classes exactly?

Solution

  • As the name suggests, the application level classes are the classes that belong to the application - i.e., classes that aren't part of the platform, such as the JDK's classes.
