Hello!

I want to add an "insertBefore" on a method of a core JDK 5 class. For some 
reason it´s not working. Here's the code:


ClassPool pool = ClassPool.getDefault();
CtClass ctClass = 
pool.get("com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.xs.XSMessageFormatter");
CtMethod ctMethod = ctClass.getDeclaredMethods()[0];
ctMethod.insertBefore("System.out.println(\"WORKED\");");
ctClass.toClass();



The +com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.xs.XSMessageFormatter+ comes 
bundled with the JDK, it's inside rt.jar. After the snippet above, I run some 
code that forces the XSMessageFormatter class to run, but my inserted code 
never runs. I can only get this to work on my own classes. This code is running 
as a simple standalone app.

Any ideas?
