I thought one of the issues was that cglib does not handle annotations? &nbsp;That's a pretty big 'workaround' if that's the case. -- Sent from my Palm Pre steve(a)hibernate.org http://hibernate.orgOn May 11, 2010 1:06 PM, Strong Liu &amp;lt;stliu(a)redhat.com&amp;gt; wrote: these are the issues Steve mentioned below: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4703 https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPAPP-2971 to be fair, these issues can be workaround, and we already have patches, users who run into these issues can pick up our patch for cglib and rebuild it themselves.

that cglib with annotations issue only shows when using cglib to instrument the domain class in compile time. but I'd agree with drop it, actually i'm happy with that :D, cglib issues has taken too much time from us On May 12, 2010, at 4:10 PM, Emmanuel Bernard wrote: > I fixed the bug where field level annotations are swallowed (patch not > applied by the CGLIB team though) > http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2796998&... > > But I could not fix the bug where generics information is simply > swallowed (not enough internal knowledge). > > I think we should focus on Javassist. > > On 12 mai 2010, at 03:14, Steve Ebersole wrote: > >> I thought one of the issues was that cglib does not handle >> annotations? &nbsp;That's a pretty big 'workaround' if that's the case. >> >> >> -- Sent from my Palm Pre >> steve(a)hibernate.org >> http://hibernate.orgOn May 11, 2010 1:06 PM, Strong Liu >> &amp;lt;stliu(a)redhat.com&amp;gt; wrote: >> >> these are the issues Steve mentioned below: >> >> >> >> http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4703 >> >> https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPAPP-2971 >> >> >> >> to be fair, these issues can be workaround, and we already have >> patches, users who run into these issues can pick up our patch for >> cglib and rebuild it themselves. >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> On May 11, 2010, at 10:34 PM, Hardy Ferentschik wrote: >> >> >> >> &gt; Is there any advantage of CGLIB over javassist? >> >> &gt; >> >> &gt; On Tue, 11 May 2010 16:24:12 +0200, Steve Ebersole >> &amp;lt;steve(a)hibernate.org&amp;gt; >> >> &gt; wrote: >> >> &gt; >> >> &gt;&gt; I think the time has come to drop CGLIB support :( It is >> just becoming >> >> &gt;&gt; near impossible to get them to respond to issues.
