[hibernate-dev] CGLIB

[Emmanuel Bernard]

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&group_id=56933&atid=482368

But I could not fix the bug where generics information is simply swallowed (not enough internal knowledge). 

I think we should focus on Javassist.
