/**
* <p>Instances of this interface are used to keep the list of ClassLoaders
* registered in an MBean Server.
* They provide the necessary methods to load classes using the registered
* ClassLoaders.</p>
*
* <p>The first ClassLoader in a <code>ClassLoaderRepository</code> is
* always the MBean Server's own ClassLoader.</p>
*
* <p>When an MBean is registered in an MBean Server, if it is of a
* subclass of {@link java.lang.ClassLoader} and if it does not
* implement the interface {@link PrivateClassLoader}, it is added to
* the end of the MBean Server's <code>ClassLoaderRepository</code>.
* If it is subsequently unregistered from the MBean Server, it is
* removed from the <code>ClassLoaderRepository</code>.</p>
*
* <p>The order of MBeans in the <code>ClassLoaderRepository</code> is
* significant. For any two MBeans <em>X</em> and <em>Y</em> in the
* <code>ClassLoaderRepository</code>, <em>X</em> must appear before
* <em>Y</em> if the registration of <em>X</em> was completed before
* the registration of <em>Y</em> started. If <em>X</em> and
* <em>Y</em> were registered concurrently, their order is
* indeterminate. The registration of an MBean corresponds to the
* call to {@link MBeanServer#registerMBean} or one of the {@link
* MBeanServer}<code>.createMBean</code> methods.</p>
