Hey all,

What does everyone think about Weijie’s suggestion? We’ve been turning the 
“plain Java” option on in an ad-hoc fashion for debugging now for about a year 
and have never seen an issue. Indeed, no issue would be expected since the 
“plain Java” technique just generates and compiles Java code; while the 
byte-code fixup method requires that we know how to muck about to rewrite byte 
codes.

Maybe, for 1.12, let’s turn it on early (that is, now) and run our many tests 
during the 1.12 cycle. That will give us plenty of time to catch any issues. 
And, it means that the generated Java code becomes readily accessible for 
debugging, rather than using the opaque methods that the team has long used.

If we agree, I can go ahead and switch the default to use the “plain Java” 
method rather than the byte-code manipulation method.

Thoughts?
