Reflection
If option -d is supplied, Autojar scans the bytecode of every class for
invocations of Class.forName() and warns about any occurence. In
cases where the method's parameter is a string literal, Autojar knows the class
in advance; the message will then look like this:
* Dynamic loading: class Test, method g, name="Blah"
If option -a is present (implies -d), Autojar tries to find and
include this class in the usual way. If it succeeds, the message reads
* Dynamic loading: class Test, method g, name="Blah" (RESOLVED)
If, however, Class.forName() is called with a string reference,
Autojar can't find out the class name. Such calls are printed at the end
of the run in a separate list. Example:
* Dynamic loading, unknown classname:
class Test, method f
class Foo, method bar
The resulting archive may then be incomplete, and using it may lead to
ClassNotFound exceptions, provided that the corresponding
Class.forName() calls actually get executed.
Compiler generated Class.forName() calls are ignored. |
