  - reset
```
public static void reset()
```
    Clears the class loaders. This method should be called at the beginning of a generation run so that and change to the classloading configuration will be reflected. For example, if the eclipse launcher changes configuration it might not be updated if eclipse hasn't been restarted.
  - addResourceClassLoader
```
public static void addResourceClassLoader(ClassLoader classLoader)
```
    Adds a custom classloader to the collection of classloaders searched for resources. Currently, this is only used when searching for properties files that may be referenced in the configuration file.
    
    Parameters:
    
    classLoader - the class loader
  - addExternalClassLoader
```
public static void addExternalClassLoader(ClassLoader classLoader)
```
    Adds a custom classloader to the collection of classloaders searched for "external" classes. These are classes that do not depend on any of the generator's classes or interfaces. Examples are JDBC drivers, root classes, root interfaces, etc.
    
    Parameters:
    
    classLoader - the class loader
  - externalClassForName
```
public static Class<?> externalClassForName(String type)
                                     throws ClassNotFoundException
```
    This method returns a class loaded from the context classloader, or the classloader supplied by a client. This is appropriate for JDBC drivers, model root classes, etc. It is not appropriate for any class that extends one of the supplied classes or interfaces.
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - the type
    
    Returns:
    
    the Class loaded from the external classloader
    
    Throws:
    
    ClassNotFoundException - the class not found exception
  - createExternalObject
```
public static Object createExternalObject(String type)
```
    Creates a new Object object.
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - the type
    
    Returns:
    
    the object

```
public static Class<?> internalClassForName(String type)
                                     throws ClassNotFoundException
```
    Internal class for name.
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - the type
    
    Returns:
