Description

Interface Summary

BasicProxyFactory A proxy factory for "basic proxy" generation

BytecodeProvider Contract for providers of bytecode services to Hibernate.

ClassTransformer A persistence provider provides an instance of this interface to the PersistenceUnitInfo.addTransformer method.

ProxyFactoryFactory An interface for factories of proxy factory instances.

ReflectionOptimizer Represents reflection optimization for a particular class.

ReflectionOptimizer.AccessOptimizer Represents optimized entity property access.

ReflectionOptimizer.InstantiationOptimizer Represents optimized entity instantiation.

Class Summary

AbstractClassTransformerImpl

InstrumentedClassLoader A specialized classloader which performs bytecode enhancement on class definitions as they are loaded into the classloader scope.

Package org.hibernate.bytecode Description

This package defines the API for plugging in bytecode libraries for usage by Hibernate. Hibernate uses these bytecode libraries in three scenarios:

Reflection optimization - to speed up the performance of POJO entity and component conctruction and field/property access
Proxy generation - runtime building of proxies used for deferred loading of lazy entities
Field-level interception - build-time instrumentation of entity classes for the purpose of intercepting field-level access (read/write) for both lazy loading and dirty tracking.

Currently, both CGLIB and Javassist are supported out-of-the-box.

Note that for field-level interception, simply plugging in a new BytecodeProvider is not enough for Hibernate to be able to recognize new providers. You would additionally need to make appropriate code changes to the org.hibernate.intercept.Helper class. This is because the detection of these enhanced classes is needed in a static environment (i.e. outside the scope of any SessionFactory.

Note that in the current form the ability to specify a different bytecode provider is actually considered a global settings (global to the JVM).
