> Installation of Ranger plugin adds libraries that are used by the plugin into component’s CLASSPATH. For example, libraries like - gson, httpmime, eclipselink, javax.persistence, etc. This can potentially impact the functioning of the component if the component requires a version of a library which is incompatible with the version used by Ranger plugin.
> One approach to minimize such impact is to have the Ranger plugin load the dependent libraries dynamically in its own class loader, instead of copying them to the component’s CLASSPATH.
