I think that means that the JVM reads your code line by line and initialize the classes as needed, starting by your "Main" class. It only loads class A if your "Main" class has a reference to it, then stops loading the "Main" class and starts loading A, when A referrs to B, pauses the load of A and start with B, the resumes the load of A, and at last resumes the load of "Main".
