[jboss-user] [Javassist] - Saving proxy classes and using them in Android

Eric H [http://community.jboss.org/people/EricJava] created the discussion "Saving proxy classes and using them in Android" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/534357#534357 -------------------------------------------------------------- I am new to the wonderful world of Javassist, and I now have a question: I have used the very easy and convenient ProxyFactory in the usual way: {code}     final ProxyFactory proxyFactory = new ProxyFactory();         proxyFactory.writeDirectory = "/tmp";         proxyFactory.setSuperclass(Invoice.class);         final MethodHandler methodHandler = new MethodHandler() {             public Object invoke(Object self, Method m, Method proceed,                     Object[] args) throws Throwable {                 System.out.println("Name: " + m.getName());                 return proceed.invoke(self, args);  // execute the original method.             }         };         proxyFactory.setFilter(new MethodFilter() {             public boolean isHandled(Method m) {                 // ignore finalize()                 return !m.getName().equals("finalize");             }         });         final Class klass = proxyFactory.createClass();         Invoice invoice = (Invoice) klass.newInstance();         ((ProxyObject) invoice).setHandler(methodHandler); {code} That works great.  When I call methods on the invoice object there, I immediately see that my MethodHandler is invoked.  Super-cool! Also, it does one more thing: it saves a new class file, with a name like Invoice_$$_javassist_0.class . What I would like to do is be able to use that generated class, without needing to have the bytecode present.  The reason for this is I want to use it within Android, and Android doesn't use regular class files.  If I can use the ProxyFactory to write out the class files, then I can build my Android DEX files using those class files.  But I don't know how to load or make use of the generated files like Invoice_$$_javassist_0.class. Does my question make sense?  I assume that ProxyFactory is able to save those class files for a good reason, but I can't find out how to make use of them.
