RE: Loading and unloading scheme function definitions.


Would you have an example of how to bind an unbind a function definition in
the Scheme environment from Java.

Also, what if the scheme function has been compiled to byte code and the
generated Java class has already been loaded by the class loader. Class
loaders only load a class file once and subsequently retrieve it from an
internal cache.

Sure.  We do this all the time.
