RE: [Springframework-developer] RE: About CGLIB2

[<jue...@we...>]

Chris,

That's good news! I didn't know that a CGLIB 1.1 release based on ASM =
1.4 was planned: That will indeed resolve the issues. I guess we can =
migrate our AOP framework to CGLIB 2.0 now without any hassle!

Wow, that's a big thread! I'll try to answer everything in this mail.

Here's the current status:

Hibernate 2.1 Final ships with CGLIB 2.0 RC1.

CGLIB 2.0 Final will probably be released within a week. At the same
time, CGLIB *1.1* will also be released. This will be exactly the same
as CGLIB 1.0 except it will use ASM 1.4 instead of 1.3, which will allow
it to be used simutaneously with CGLIB 2.0 (no classname are shared
between CGLIB 1.0 and 2.0 for this reason).

With CGLIB 1.1 available, your decision to use CGLIB 2.0 for AOP can
be independant of whether you want to support Hibernate 2.1, I think.

No "article"-type documentation yet. I'll try to answer whatever
questions you have in the meantime.

It should be pretty easy to port these things over to CGLIB/ASM. ASM 1.4
also has some support for the JSR 175 classfile attributes, in case you
want to be future-compatible.

I think the release of CGLIB 1.1 will make this moot.=20

Yes, I've been in contact with Clinton and version 2 of iBATIS should be
using CGLIB 2.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
