<ol>
        <li>Now that we have shown that ClassMate can solve the issue, we could try to re-implement the functionality
        <ul>
                <li><em>Pro</em>: We own the code (it's invented here <img class="emoticon" src="https://hibernate.onjira.com/images/icons/emoticons/wink.gif" height="20" width="20" align="absmiddle" alt="" border="0"/>)</li>
                <li><em>Con</em>: Takes time to write</li>
        </ul>
        </li>
        <li>Include the ClassMate code into our codebase
        <ul>
                <li><em>Pro</em>: No additional dependencies (something we always tried to avoid), no potential conflicts with apps using their own version of ClassMate (provided we also rename the packages)</li>
                <li><em>Con</em>: Loosing the ability to easily upgrade/patch, format of code is very different to the HV one (causes problems with <a href="https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HV-640" title="Enable checkstyle code style checks as part of the build">HV-640</a>), does hide origin of code</li>
        </ul>
        </li>
        <li>Add ClassMate as standard dependency
        <ul>
                <li><em>Pro</em>: Easy, shows origin of code</li>
                <li><em>Con</em>: User needs to add another library, potential version conflict</li>
        </ul>
        </li>
</ol>
<p>As an alternative to ClassMate we could use <a href="http://code.google.com/p/gentyre">gentyref</a> which seems, however, inactive. The share plugin is probably out of question as well. See <a href="https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HV-534" title="Consider removing the shading plug-in"><del>HV-534</del></a>.</p>
<p>Right now I favor #3</p></div>
