  • CtClass#getDeclaredBehaviors() now returns a class initializer

        as well as methods and constructors.
    
  • The default status of automatic pruning was made off. Instead of pruning, this version of Javassist compresses the data structure of a class file after toBytecode() is called. The compressed class file is automatically decompressed when needed. This saves memory space better than pruning.

version 3.5 on April 29, 2007

  • Various minor updates.

  • A synchronization bug and a performance bug in javassist.util.proxy

    have been fixed
    ([JASSIST-28](http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JASSIST-28)).

    set `ProxyFactory.useCache` to `false`.

  • CtClass#toClass() and ClassPool#toClass() were modified to accept a

    `ProtectionDomain`
    ([JASSIST-23](http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JASSIST-23)).
    Now ClassPool#toClass(CtClass, ClassLoader) should not be overridden.  All
    subclasses of ClassPool must override toClass(CtClass, ClassLoader,
    ProtectionDomain).
    
  • CtClass#getAvailableAnnotations() etc. have been implemented.

  • A bug related to a way of dealing with a bridge method was fixed

    ([HIBERNATE-37](http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/HIBERNATE-37)).

  • A bug of replace(String,ExprEditor) in javassist.expr.Expr has been fixed.

  • Updated ProxyFactory getClassLoader to choose the javassit class loader when the proxy superclass has a null class loader (a jdk/endorsed class) (JASSIST-18).

  • Updated the throws clause of the javassist.util.proxy.MethodHandler to be Throwable rather than Exception (JASSIST-16).

version 3.2.0.CR1 on March 18, 2006

    were changed to return non-private memebers instead of only
    public members.

  • The return type of CtClass.stopPruning() was changed from void

    to boolean.
    
  • toMethod() in javassist.CtConstructor has been implemented.

Simple changes for integration with JBoss AOP

  • Made ClassPool.get0 protected so that subclasses of ClassPool can call it.

  • Bugs in Bytecode.write() and read() have been fixed.

version 2.2 in October, 2002.

    and addInvokeinterface()
    have been modified to update the current statck depth.
    

version 2.1 in July, 2002.

  • javassist.CtMember and javassist.CtBehavior have been added.

  • javassist.CtClass.toBytecode() has been added.

  • javassist.CtClass.toClass() and javassist.ClassPool.writeAsClass()

    has been added.
    
  • javassist.ByteArrayClassPath has been added.

  • javassist.bytecode.Mnemonic has been added.

  • Several bugs have been fixed.

version 2.0 (major update) in November, 2001.

  • The javassist.bytecode package has been provided. It is a

    lower-level API for directly modifying a class file although
    the users must have detailed knowledge of the Java bytecode.
    
  • The mechanism for creating CtClass objects have been changed.

  • javassist.tool.Dump moves to the javassist package.

version 1.0 in July, 2001.

  • javassist.reflect.Metaobject and ClassMetaobject was changed. Now they throw the same exception that they receive from a base-level object.

version 0.8

  • javassist.tool.Dump was added. It is a class file viewer.

    initializing a field with an array object.
    
  • javassist.CodeConverter.redirectMethodCall() was added.

    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).
    
  • 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.
    
  • Constructors are now represented by CtConstructor objects. CtConstructor is a subclass of CtMethod.

  • CtClass.getUserAttribute() was removed. Use CtClass.getAttribute().

    metaobjects can be replaced at runtime.
    

version 0.6

  • Javassist was modified to correctly deal with array types appearing

    in signatures.
    
  • A bug crashed resulting bytecode if a class includes a private static

    filed.  It has been fixed.
