VerifyError on Illegal bytecode generated with cross-package inheritence ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBAOP-660 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAOP-660 Project: JBoss AOP Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 2.0.0.CR18, 2.0.0.CR17, 2.0.0.CR16, 2.0.0.CR15, 2.0.0.CR14, 2.0.0.CR13, 2.0.0.CR12, 2.0.0.CR11, 2.0.0.CR10, 2.0.0.CR9, 2.0.0.CR8, 2.0.0.CR7, 2.0.0.CR6, 2.0.0.CR5, 2.0.0.CR4, 2.0.0.CR3, 2.0.0.CR2, 2.0.0.CR1, 2.0.0.beta2, 2.0.0.beta1, 2.0.0.alpha6, 2.0.0.alpha5, 2.0.0.alpha4, 2.0.0.alpha3, 2.0.0.alpha2, 2.0.0.alpha1 Reporter: Jason T. Greene Priority: Critical Fix For: 2.0.0.GA If two classes in an inheritance tree are both weaved, and the classes are in different packages, the generated adviser classes contain bytecode that violates the protected member access restrictions: 33: getfield #617; //Field two/Bar$BarInstanceAdvisor.parent:Ltwo/Bar$BarAdvisor; 36: getfield #619; //Field one/Foo$FooAdvisor.aop$FieldInfo_w_blah:Lorg/jboss/aop/FieldInfo; A protected member can only be accessed on an object instance that is the same type or a subtype of the code touching the protected field, unless both classes are in the same package, in which case normal package access rules supersede. Adding a method call indirection, or making the fields public would be possible solutions. To reproduce, just create two small classes in different packages where one inherits the other, and both are weaved. Then call Advised._getInstanceAdvisor(), which will attempt to load the class, resulting in a VerifyError -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
