The canonical RMIClassLoaderSpi returned by RMIClassLoader.getDefaultProvider()
does not check java.rmi.server.codebase property changes.

The getAnotationClass method returns only one value of codebase, and there is
no way to change it. If I change codebase property the method doesn't check this.


The javadoc says:
"the value of the java.rmi.server.codebase property is returned"

See example:

import java.rmi.server.*;

================ Test.java =====================
public class Test {
 
public static void main( String[] args ) throws Exception {
    RMIClassLoaderSpi c = RMIClassLoader.getDefaultProviderInstance();
    System.out.println("class annotation 1: " + c.getClassAnnotation(Object.class));

    System.setProperty("java.rmi.server.codebase", "file:/");
RMIClassLoaderSpi c2 = RMIClassLoader.getDefaultProviderInstance();
    System.out.println("class annotation 2: " + c2.getClassAnnotation(Object.class));
 
}
}
=============== output =======================
class annotation 1: null
class annotation 2: null
