The ClassFinder class is used to find classes that are implementing or
extending an interface or a class under a package name.
However that class uses a file based approach to read the files present under
the directory, then load them in memory, and finally checks if they are
compatible.
It is a lot of effort when those classes could be defined under a meta package
class a la EMF.
It only works inside wars as ClassFinder assumes the presence of
WEB-INF/classes. It will never work in a development environment for that
reason, it will also be difficult for it to work when used as an OSGi bundle.
