Move away from Javassist
------------------------

                 Key: TAP5-853
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-853
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: tapestry-core
    Affects Versions: 5.2.0.0
            Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship


A long-term, multi-release strategy to replace ClassFactory/ClassGen and 
ClassTransformation methods with equivalents that are not tied to Javassist.

Over a couple of releases, the methods could be introduced (still implemented 
on top of Javassist), and the Javassist-centric methods deprecated, then 
eventually disabled (NotImplementedException) or even removed.

Rationale: Javassist is unprofessionally and fitfully maintained; many users 
have problems under Java6 due to Javassist.
