## Class imp

- java.lang.Object
- - org.python.core.imp

    public class imp
    extends Object

Utility functions for "import" support. Note that this class tries to match the names of the corresponding functions from CPython's Python/import.c. In these cases we use CPython's function naming style (underscores and all lowercase) instead of Java's typical camelCase style so that it's easier to compare with import.c.

### Method Detail

#### getSyspathJavaLoader

    public static ClassLoader getSyspathJavaLoader()

#### getParentClassLoader

    public static ClassLoader getParentClassLoader()

Selects the parent class loader for Jython, to be used for dynamically loaded classes and resources. Chooses between the current and context classloader based on the following criteria:

- If both are the same classloader, return that classloader.
- If either is null, then the non-null one is selected.
- If both are not null, and a parent/child relationship can be determined, then the child is selected.
- If both are not null and not on a parent/child relationship, then the current class loader is returned (since it is likely for the context class loader to not see the Jython classes)

Returns:
  the parent class loader for Jython or null if both the current and context classloaders are null.
