Hi all,
Hi Andrej,
your far from Swing :)
(I remember you from the glorious appframework time)
Is there some reason for not using #valueOf-methods from wrapper classes
in Unsafe-based FieldAccessors in sun.reflect-package (see the attached patch)?
The main reason, I think, is that these code was written during 1.4 time
frame
and not updated for 1.5.
And the mailer deamon (or mailer imp ?) remove attachment, so you have
to repost it inlined.
The main motivation for this patch is to reduce memory consumption in
applications
which make heavy use of reflection API (e.g. apps which use ORM solutions).
and your ORM doesn't use neither field.getInt() (and variants) instead
of field.get()
nor do bytecode enhancement ?
Also, because currently the escape analysis done by Hotspot is a little
bit broken
you may introduce a slowdown/more memory consumption because the JIT
may be able to remove new Integer()/Integer.intValue() pair but not
Integer.valueOf()/Integer.intValue() pair.
But I know that someone is working on this :)
The patch does not modify Unsafe-based FieldAccessors for double and float
fields as the wrapper classes does not provide caching for fields of this types.
