Another way to simplify this would be to add a new overload of Class.forName(): public static Class<?> forName(String name, boolean initialize) That way the loader argument could be dropped completely from a number of the use-cases.
Paul and Remi also suggest that during the jigsaw code review on the jigsaw-dev mailing list. It's worth considering. I plan to look at the usage of Class.forName in the JDK and add this new overload of Class.forName method if there are many use of it but I haven't got to it yet. I prefer to push this changeset as it and file a new CR and target it for JDK 8.
