I've also had problems passing classes that reside to memory to apache UIMA or instantiation. What worked for me is this:

(def dynamic-classloader (. (Thread/currentThread) getContextClassLoader)) (Class/forName "mypackage.myclass" true dynamic-classloader)

There's a lib for this, we've used it in anger, and it seems to work:

        I am trying to include some Groovy code at runtime, which is
        already on the JVM's classloader path. I have succeeded in
        setting the groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader with Clojure's
        classloader as the Thread's contextClassLoader, but I'm having
        troubling getting (import ...) to work. I discovered so far
        that (import ...) prefers to use the
        clojure.lang.Compiler/LOADER if it's defined (and it is, in my
        project), so I tried the following:

        (try
          (push-thread-bindings {clojure.lang.Compiler/LOADER
        (groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader.)}
          ;GroovyCL defaults to use contextClassLoader as parent,
        which is the Clojure ClassLoader
          (import 'my_groovy_class)
          (finally (pop-thread-bindings)))

        Note that I can successfully do (.. Thread currentThread
        getContextClassLoader (loadCLass "my_groovy_class")) once I've
        set the contextClassLoader.

        What is the way to get (import ...) working so that I can
        manipulate my_groovy_class without resorting to
        forName/createInstance?
