-
- <p>Javassist (JAVA programming ASSISTant) makes Java bytecode manipulation
- simple. It is a class library for editing bytecodes in Java;
- it enables Java programs to define a new class at runtime and to
- modify a class file when the JVM loads it. Unlike other similar
- bytecode editors, Javassist provides two levels of API: source level
- and bytecode level. If the users use the source-level API, they can
- edit a class file without knowledge of the specifications of the Java
- bytecode. The whole API is designed with only the vocabulary of the
- Java language. You can even specify inserted bytecode in the form of
- source text; Javassist compiles it on the fly. On the other hand, the
- bytecode-level API allows the users to directly edit a class file as
- other editors.

- <h2>How to run sample programs</h2>
-
- <p>JDK 1.4 or later is needed.
-
- <h3>0. If you have Apache Ant</h3>
-
- <p>Run the sample-all task.
- Otherwise, follow the instructions below.
-
- <h3>1. Move to the directory where this Readme.html file is located.</h3>
-
- <p>In the following instructions, we assume that the javassist.jar
- file is included in the class path.
- For example, the javac and java commands must receive
- the following <code>classpath</code> option:
-
- <ul><pre>
- -classpath ".:javassist.jar"
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>If the operating system is Windows, the path
- separator must be not <code>:</code> (colon) but
- <code>;</code> (semicolon). The java command can receive
- the <code>-cp</code> option
- as well as <code>-classpath</code>.
-
- <p>If you don't want to use the class-path option, you can make
- <code>javassist.jar</code> included in the <code>CLASSPATH</code>
- environment:
-
- <ul><pre>
- export CLASSPATH=.:javassist.jar
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>or if the operating system is Windows:
-
- <ul><pre>
- set CLASSPATH=.;javassist.jar
- </pre></ul>
-
-
- <p>Otherwise, you can copy <tt>javassist.jar</tt> to the directory
-
- <ul><<i>java-home</i>><tt>/jre/lib/ext</tt>.</ul>
-
- <p><<i>java-home</i>> depends on the system. It is usually
- <tt>/usr/local/java</tt>, <tt>c:\j2sdk1.4\</tt>, etc.
-
- <h3>2. sample/Test.java</h3>
-
- <p> This is a very simple program using Javassist.
-
- <p> To run, type the commands:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % javac sample/Test.java
- % java sample.Test
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p> For more details, see <a type="text/plain" href="sample/Test.java">sample/Test.java</a>
-
- <h3>3. sample/reflect/*.java</h3>
-
- <p> This is the "verbose metaobject" example well known in reflective
- programming. This program dynamically attaches a metaobject to
- a Person object. The metaobject prints a message if a method
- is called on the Person object.
-
- <p> To run, type the commands:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % javac sample/reflect/*.java
- % java javassist.tools.reflect.Loader sample.reflect.Main Joe
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>Compare this result with that of the regular execution without reflection:
-
- <ul><pre>% java sample.reflect.Person Joe</pre></ul>
-
- <p> For more details, see <a type="text/plain" href="sample/reflect/Main.java">sample/reflect/Main.java</a>
-
- <p> Furthermore, the Person class can be statically modified so that
- all the Person objects become reflective without sample.reflect.Main.
- To do this, type the commands:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % java javassist.tools.reflect.Compiler sample.reflect.Person -m sample.reflect.VerboseMetaobj
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p> Then,
- <ul><pre>
- % java sample.reflect.Person Joe
- </pre></ul>
-
- <h3>4. sample/duplicate/*.java</h3>
-
- <p> This is another example of reflective programming.
-
- <p> To run, type the commands:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % javac sample/duplicate/*.java
- % java sample.duplicate.Main
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>Compare this result with that of the regular execution without reflection:
-
- <ul><pre>% java sample.duplicate.Viewer</pre></ul>
-
- <p>For more details, see
- <a type="text/plain" href="sample/duplicate/Main.java">sample/duplicate/Main.java</a>
-
- <h3>5. sample/vector/*.java</h3>
-
- <p>This example shows the use of Javassit for producing a class representing
- a vector of a given type at compile time.
-
- <p> To run, type the commands:
- <ul><pre>
- % javac sample/vector/*.java
- % java sample.preproc.Compiler sample/vector/Test.j
- % javac sample/vector/Test.java
- % java sample.vector.Test
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>Note: <code>javassist.jar</code> is unnecessary to compile and execute
- <code>sample/vector/Test.java</code>.
-
- For more details, see
- <a type="text/plain" href="sample/vector/Test.j">sample/vector/Test.j</a>
- and <a type="text/plain" href="sample/vector/VectorAssistant.java">sample/vector/VectorAssistant.java</a>
-
- <h3>6. sample/rmi/*.java</h3>
-
- <p> This demonstrates the javassist.rmi package.
-
- <p> To run, type the commands:
- <ul><pre>
- % javac sample/rmi/*.java
- % java sample.rmi.Counter 5001
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p> The second line starts a web server listening to port 5001.
-
- <p> Then, open <a href="sample/rmi/webdemo.html">sample/rmi/webdemo.html</a>
- with a web browser running
- on the local host. (<tt>webdemo.html</tt> trys to fetch an applet from
- <tt>http://localhost:5001/</tt>, which is the web server we started above.)
-
- <p> Otherwise, run sample.rmi.CountApplet as an application:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % java javassist.web.Viewer localhost 5001 sample.rmi.CountApplet
- </pre></ul>
-
- <h3>7. sample/evolve/*.java</h3>
-
- <p> This is a demonstration of the class evolution mechanism implemented
- with Javassist. This mechanism enables a Java program to reload an
- existing class file under some restriction.
-
- <p> To run, type the commands:
- <ul><pre>
- % javac sample/evolve/*.java
- % java sample.evolve.DemoLoader 5003
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p> The second line starts a class loader DemoLoader, which runs a web
- server DemoServer listening to port 5003.
-
- <p> Then, open <a href="http://localhost:5003/demo.html">http://localhost:5003/demo.html</a> with a web browser running
- on the local host.
- (Or, see <a href="sample/evolve/start.html">sample/evolve/start.html</a>.)
-
- <h3>8. sample/hotswap/*.java</h3>
-
- <p>This shows dynamic class reloading by the JPDA. It needs JDK 1.4 or later.
- To run, first type the following commands:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % cd sample/hotswap
- % javac *.java
- % cd logging
- % javac *.java
- % cd ..
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>If your Java is 1.4, then type:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=8000 Test
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>If you are using Java 5, then type:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % java -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=8000 Test
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>Note that the class path must include <code>JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar</code>.
-
- <h2>Hints</h2>
-
- <p>To know the version number, type this command:
-
- <ul><pre>
- % java -jar javassist.jar
- </pre></ul>
-
- <p>Javassist provides a class file viewer for debugging. For more details,
- see javassist.Dump.

- </ul>
-
- <p>- version 2.1 in July, 2002.

- the users must have detailed knowledge of the Java bytecode.
-
- <li>The mechanism for creating CtClass objects have been changed.
-
- <li>javassist.tool.Dump moves to the javassist package.
- </ul>
-
- <p>version 1.0 in July, 2001.
- <ul>
- <li>javassist.reflect.Metaobject and ClassMetaobject was changed.
- Now they throw the same exception that they receive from a
- base-level object.
- </ul>
-
- <p>- version 0.8
- <ul>
- <li>javassist.tool.Dump was added. It is a class file viewer.
-

- deleted. Instead, Codebase was renamed to ClassPath
- and UserClassPath was added. Now programmers who want to
- customize Loader must write a class implementing UserClassPath
- instead of UserLoader. This change is for sharing class search paths
- between Loader and CtClass.CtClass(String).
-
- <li>CtClass.addField(), addMethod(), addConstructor(), addWrapper() were
- also largely modified so that it receives CtNewMethod, CtNewConstructor,
- or CtNewField. The static methods for creating these objects were
- added to the API.
-
- <li>Constructors are now represented by CtConstructor objects.
- CtConstructor is a subclass of CtMethod.
-
- <li>CtClass.getUserAttribute() was removed. Use CtClass.getAttribute().
-
