Fwd: [asm] toward ASM 4.0

[MacGregor, Duncan (GE Energy)]

Since Remi hasn't replied (or it hasn't reached my mailbox if he has). Yes, MethodType is now merged with Type, and MethodHandle is now Handle, which makes everything much more readable. You will however have to make sure you've changed everything from org.objectweb to org.ow2.

 

One problem I have found is that in changing ClassWriter.getCommonSuperClass() to not call initialisation code they've limited it to classes loaded by the bootstrap ClassLoader. I'll try and talk with them about this on the ASM list just as soon as I can get it to send me a subscription mail. Although in our case it was easy to fix the problem by specifying the system ClassLoader I'm not sure if it should be that or ClassWriter's ClassLoader (they're unlikely to be different, but could be in theory).

 

Regards, Duncan.

Rémi,  A message from our glorious ASM leader. 

I seem to recall some discussion on the mentioned class names ( MethodType and MethodHandle). 

I assume this means that asm no longer has these types? And thus I no longer need the full class names 
for the java.lang versions? 

thanks 
mark
