Is this a thread safe operation for your Ptolomy project?
Should you suspend the application in order to load 'new classes' there?

Thank you.

Nothing new here: add a level of indirection (or use C++ virtual
functions), and dynamically load code.  In the Ptolemy project
(http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/) we were doing that in 1990:
we could define new classes and load them into a running application,
without restarting.
