CircularDependencyError

public CircularDependencyError(java.lang.String className,
                               java.util.List dependencyList)

Create a new CircularDependencyError.

Parameters:

className - the name of the class that started it all.

dependencyList - a list of the classes (Class) that the original class depended on, the classes they depended on, and so on. The list should show the chain of dependencies that resulted in the exception being thrown. Note: Versions prior to 2.2 accepted a list of Objects of any type. This is still supported, but the formatting may suffer. Please only use lists of Class.
