             Summary: Support recursive Class addition
                 Key: SHRINKWRAP-436
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKWRAP-436
             Project: ShrinkWrap
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: api, impl-base
            Reporter: Michal Matloka
            Assignee: Michal Matloka


I'd like propose to add e.g the following methods to the API: 
addClass(boolean recursive, Class<?> clazz)
addClass(boolean recursive, int depth, Class<?> clazz)

They would add to the archive, given clazz, and all other classes mentioned in clazz, e.g

For the following class strcture
{noformat}
private static final class DummyRecursiveA {

       private DummyRecursiveB dummyRecursiveB;
}

private static final class DummyRecursiveB {

}
{noformat}

operation .addClass(true, DummyRecursiveA.class) would result in adding both DummyRecursiveA and DummyRecursiveB  to the archive.

It is possible to achieve, e.g. using ASM library - as described in answer of the following topic http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3734825/find-out-which-classes-of-a-given-api-are-used

I've locally prepared proof of concept based on stackoverflow, after some refactorings I will present the pull request.
