Dynamically load and manage Java JAR libraries in a running ColdBox application so developers can instantiate Java classes and use Java libraries without restarting the CFML server, while controlling reload behavior between development and production.
Use cbjavaloader to load JARs from your project's lib folder, set reloadOnEveryRequest for development, inject the javaloader, and instantiate the Java class you need to perform processing.

To load Java JAR libraries without restarting the server, use cbjavaloader to dynamically add JARs from configurable load paths at runtime. This allows your ColdBox application to instantiate Java classes immediately without requiring a CFML server restart.
Yes, you can use Apache POI and iText for PDF and Excel processing in ColdBox. The cbjavaloader dynamically loads these Java libraries at runtime, allowing you to instantiate their classes for spreadsheet handling and PDF processing without server restarts.
To configure dynamic classloader reloads during development, toggle the reloadOnEveryRequest setting in cbjavaloader. This enables fast development loops by automatically reloading Java libraries on each request, while ensuring safe production behavior when disabled.
The best way to inject a Java classloader as a singleton in WireBox is using cbjavaloader's WireBox-compatible injection. This provides a singleton javaloader instance for safe reuse, allowing simple creation and initialization of Java objects across your ColdBox application.
Yes, cbjavaloader supports optional inclusion of the server classpath when loading JAR files. This feature allows you to combine dynamically loaded libraries with existing server classpath resources, providing flexible class resolution within your ColdBox application.
