Hi people,
 
I'm trying to learn to use javassist and I need some help with my study.
 
I want first to get all annotations used from one class and its hierarchy (recursively until Object class) . Second, to create a Map<String, List<?>> for each annotation founded and get all annotation's members and its values for each class. And third, to merge all annotation's member whose types are array. 
 
Well I could do the first part,  but I've no lock on the second one. I couldn't found a way to get the members real values...
 
I've used these method:
 
{code}
...
 
for (javassist.bytecode.annotation.Annotation testAnnotation : annotations) {
  
 
..
Set<String> memberNames = testAnnotation.getMemberNames();
for (String memberName : memberNames) {
 
MemberValue value = testAnnotation.getMemberValue(memberNames);
Class[] myRelatedClasses = value.???
...
}
{code}
 
But I couldn't see any method on MemberValue that I could use to get the value. Actualy there is a method, but not public...
 
Could someone give a clue how could I do that?
 
thanks
 
Cristiano
