Buddy Class Loading & Versioning

• How does Buddy class loading works with versioning?

When buddy policies are used a search is done across all found buddies until the class or resource is found. Versions are not considered.

• What happens, if a bundle exists in multiple versions and all version register with a buddy bundle?

The version order currently is not defined for buddy searching. If multiple versions of a buddy exist then it is random which version you will load a given class or resource from.

There is room for improvement here. Suggestions are welcome.
