Provides a small and fast bytecode manipulation framework.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <a href="http://www.objectweb.org/asm">ASM</a> framework is organized
|
|
around the {@link org.objectweb.asm.ClassVisitor ClassVisitor},
|
|
{@link org.objectweb.asm.FieldVisitor FieldVisitor},
|
|
{@link org.objectweb.asm.MethodVisitor MethodVisitor} and
|
|
{@link org.objectweb.asm.AnnotationVisitor AnnotationVisitor} abstract classes,
|
|
which allow one to visit the fields, methods and annotations of a class,
|
|
including the bytecode instructions of each method.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In addition to these main abstract classes, ASM provides a {@link
|
|
org.objectweb.asm.ClassReader ClassReader} class, that can parse an
|
|
existing class and make a given visitor visit it. ASM also provides
|
|
a {@link org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter ClassWriter} class, which is
|
|
a visitor that generates Java class files.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to generate a class from scratch, only the {@link
|
|
org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter ClassWriter} class is necessary. Indeed,
|
|
in order to generate a class, one must just call its visit<i>Xxx</i>
|
|
methods with the appropriate arguments to generate the desired fields
|
|
and methods. See the "helloworld" example in the ASM distribution for
|
|
more details about class generation.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to modify existing classes, one must use a {@link
|
|
org.objectweb.asm.ClassReader ClassReader} class to analyze
|
|
the original class, a class modifier, and a {@link org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter
|
|
ClassWriter} to construct the modified class. The class modifier
|
|
is just a {@link org.objectweb.asm.ClassVisitor ClassVisitor}
|
|
that delegates most of the work to another {@link org.objectweb.asm.ClassVisitor
|
|
ClassVisitor}, but that sometimes changes some parameter values,
|
|
or call additional methods, in order to implement the desired
|
|
modification process. In order to make it easier to implement such
|
|
class modifiers, the {@link org.objectweb.asm.ClassVisitor
|
|
ClassVisitor} and {@link org.objectweb.asm.MethodVisitor MethodVisitor}
|
|
classes delegate by default all the method calls they receive to an
|
|
optional visitor. See the "adapt" example in the ASM
|
|
distribution for more details about class modification.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The size of the core ASM library, <tt>asm.jar</tt>, is only 45KB, which is much
|
|
smaller than the size of the
|
|
<a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/bcel">BCEL</a> library (504KB), and than the
|
|
size of the
|
|
<a href="http://serp.sourceforge.net">SERP</a> library (150KB). ASM is also
|
|
much faster than these tools. Indeed the overhead of a load time class
|
|
transformation process is of the order of 60% with ASM, 700% or more with BCEL,
|
|
and 1100% or more with SERP (see the <tt>test/perf</tt> directory in the ASM
|
|
distribution)!
