/**
 * <p>ResolverUtil is used to locate classes that are available in the/a class path and meet
 * arbitrary conditions. The two most common conditions are that a class implements/extends
 * another class, or that is it annotated with a specific annotation. However, through the use
 * of the {@link Test} class it is possible to search using arbitrary conditions.</p>
 *
 * <p>A ClassLoader is used to locate all locations (directories and jar files) in the class
 * path that contain classes within certain packages, and then to load those classes and
 * check them. By default the ClassLoader returned by
 *  {@code Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()} is used, but this can be overridden
 * by calling {@link #setClassLoader(ClassLoader)} prior to invoking any of the {@code find()}
 * methods.</p>
 *
 * <p>General searches are initiated by calling the
 * {@link #find(com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.ResolverUtil.Test, String...)} ()} method and supplying
 * a package name and a Test instance. This will cause the named package <b>and all sub-packages</b>
 * to be scanned for classes that meet the test. There are also utility methods for the common
 * use cases of scanning multiple packages for extensions of particular classes, or classes
 * annotated with a specific annotation.</p>
 *
 * <p>The standard usage pattern for the ResolverUtil class is as follows:</p>
 *
 *<pre>
 *ResolverUtil&lt;ActionBean&gt; resolver = new ResolverUtil&lt;ActionBean&gt;();
 *resolver.findImplementation(ActionBean.class, pkg1, pkg2);
 *resolver.find(new CustomTest(), pkg1);
 *resolver.find(new CustomTest(), pkg2);
 *Collection&lt;ActionBean&gt; beans = resolver.getClasses();
 *</pre> 
 *
 * <p>This class was copied from Stripes - http://stripes.mc4j.org/confluence/display/stripes/Home
