Description copied from class: ClassFinder

Caches the mapping from name to class and from class to name. This method must be used with care, because it's possible for more than one name to map to the same class: for example, a fully-qualified name, and a short, packageless name. There may even be more than one short name that works. A ClassFinder that has lower-case (e.g. "dash-syntax") external names may convert to Java names by capitalizing some letters, but leaving any existing capitals in place. It might thus accept both "Issue" and "issue".

Overrides:

cacheBothWays in class ClassFinder

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] argv)

Simple main program for testing. This method calls ClassFinder.do_main(ClassFinder) with an instance of this class as the finder.
