Hi Remi, > yes, it's a feature of ASM, offer the right abstraction to do bytecode > generation/transformation i.e. a stream of opcodes that are more abstract > than the real bytecode, so there is no way to get a direct access to the > bytecode at a specific BCI. For the generation of the NPE message I intend the abstraction would be helpful. But I need to identify the bytecode that raised the NPE to start with, and I need to operate on the exact bytecode that was executed when the NPE occurred.
Thus, two questions: 1. As I understand, it would be simple to extend ASM to deliver the initial BCIs when the stream is parsed. They could be stored separately and discarded once something gets modified (similar to InsnList.cache). 2. Is there any possibility to access the live datastructures/bytecode in the VM? I was pointed to former JvmtiClassFileReconstitutor ... something like that? Thanks and best regards, Goetz.
