To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/798833#798833 -------------------------------------------------------------- I can successfully create class definitions at runtime using Javassist, but I also need the ability to rebuild the definitions to add/remove/change member data and their getters/setters. Is this at all possible? I'm using a custom class loader for the classes that I generate. I was hoping I could do something like this: - create class definition in custom class pool ( http://www.csg.ci.i.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~chiba/javassist/html/javassist/ClassPo... ClassPool( http://www.csg.ci.i.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~chiba/javassist/html/javassist/ClassPo... ClassPool parent)) - add to custom class loader Then later: - retrieve CtClass instance and detach it from the pool - remove from custom class loader - create new class definition with the same class path - add to same custom class loader Or alternatively: - retrieve CtClass instance and detach it from the pool - remove all fields and methods - create new fields and methods Is this at all possible?
