Byte Buddy v0.2 Release Notes

Release Date: 2014-06-01 // almost 10 years ago
    • Changed the semantics of the @SuperCall to be only bindable, if a super method can be invoked. Before, an exception was thrown if only a non-existent or abstract super method was found.
    • Added features for the interaction with Java 8 default methods. Refactored method lookup to extract invokable default methods.
    • Refactored the invocation of super methods to be created by an Instrumentation.Target. For a future release, this hopefully allows for class redefinitions using today's API for creating subclasses.
    • Upgraded to ASM 5.0.3.
