When I mentioned “hooks” I was referring to something along the lines of a 
callback when a file is
accessed.

When you transform a class, you basically replace its content with new content, 
so the short answer is 
that what happens to line numbers is whatever you want. If you’re using ASM for 
your transformation and 
ignore line numbers, which ASM represents as a kind of no-op instructions, then 
what would usually happen 
is that if original instruction X is mapped to line N and when transforming the 
stream you replace X with 
YXZ, then all of YXZ will remain mapped to line N.
