Tonight I wrote a Java program that dynamically loads and reloads classes. I actually wrote it for somebody who is trying to do that in a commercial application. I ran into some problems at first, but I figured out how to make it work. I love it when my programs work.
This is what I like about programming. I enjoy starting with an idea, writing notes, planning the structure, and implementing it. The process is often more satisfying than the end result. And when it all comes together and it actually runs, it's like... wow! I made this! Mental orgasm.
If any of you nerds want to look at it, I'd welcome your comments: http://madscience.dyndns.org/java/Plugins-20030906.zip
