    • visit

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> visit(AsmVisitorWrapper asmVisitorWrapper)
      Applies the supplied AsmVisitorWrapper onto the ClassVisitor during building a dynamic type. Using an ASM visitor, it is possible to manipulate byte code directly. Byte Buddy does not validate directly created byte code and it remains the responsibility of the visitor's implementor to generate legal byte code. If several ASM visitor wrappers are registered, they are applied on top of another in their registration order.
      Parameters:
      asmVisitorWrapper - The ASM visitor wrapper to apply during
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder and applies the ASM visitor wrapper.
    • initializer

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> initializer(LoadedTypeInitializer loadedTypeInitializer)
      Executes the supplied loaded type initializer when loading the created instrumented type. If several loaded type initializers are supplied, each loaded type initializer is executed in its registration order.
      Parameters:
      loadedTypeInitializer - The loaded type initializer to execute upon loading the instrumented type.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but with the supplied loaded type initializer executed upon loading the instrumented type.
    • annotateType

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> annotateType(Collection<? extends AnnotationDescription> annotations)
      Annotates the instrumented type with the supplied annotations.
      Parameters:

      Parameters:
      typeAttributeAppender - The type attribute appender to apply.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but with the supplied type attribute appender applied to the instrumented type.

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> name(String name)
      Names the dynamic type by the supplied name. The name needs to be fully qualified and in the binary format (packages separated by dots: foo.Bar). A type's package determines what other types are visible to the instrumented type and what methods can be overridden or be represented in method signatures or as field types.
      Parameters:

    • implement

      Implements the supplied interfaces for the instrumented type. Optionally, it is possible to define the methods that are defined by the interfaces or the interfaces' super interfaces. This excludes methods that are explicitly ignored.

      Note: This methods implements the supplied types as is, i.e. any TypeDescription values are implemented as raw types if they declare type variables or an owner type.

      Parameters:
      interfaceTypes - The interface types to implement.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but with the interfaces implemented by the instrumented type.
    • initializer

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> initializer(ByteCodeAppender byteCodeAppender)

      Executes the supplied byte code appender within the beginning of the instrumented type's type initializer. The supplied byte code appender must not return from the method. If several byte code appenders are supplied, they are executed within their application order.

      This method should only be used for preparing an instrumented type with a specific configuration. Normally, a byte code appender is applied via Byte Buddy's standard API by invoking DynamicType.Builder.invokable(ElementMatcher) using the ElementMatchers.isTypeInitializer() matcher.

      byteCodeAppender - The byte code appender to execute within the instrumented type's type initializer.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but with the supplied byte code appender being executed within the instrumented type's type initializer.
    • ignoreAlso

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> ignoreAlso(ElementMatcher<? super MethodDescription> ignoredMethods)

      Specifies to exclude any method that is matched by the supplied matcher from instrumentation. Previously supplied matchers remain valid after supplying a new matcher, i.e. any method that is matched by a previously supplied matcher is always ignored.

      When ignoring a type, previously registered matchers are applied before this matcher. If a previous matcher indicates that a type is to be ignored, this matcher is no longer executed.

      Specified by:
      ignoreAlso in interface DynamicType.Builder<U>
      Overrides:
      ignoreAlso in class DynamicType.Builder.AbstractBase<U>
      Parameters:
      ignoredMethods - The matcher for determining what methods to exclude from instrumentation.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but that is excluding any method that is matched by the supplied matcher from instrumentation.
    • ignoreAlso

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> ignoreAlso(LatentMatcher<? super MethodDescription> ignoredMethods)

      Specifies to exclude any method that is matched by the supplied matcher from instrumentation. Previously supplied matchers remain valid after supplying a new matcher, i.e. any method that is matched by a previously supplied matcher is always ignored. Using a latent matcher gives opportunity to resolve an ElementMatcher based on the instrumented type before applying the matcher.

      When ignoring a type, previously registered matchers are applied before this matcher. If a previous matcher indicates that a type is to be ignored, this matcher is no longer executed.

      Parameters:
      ignoredMethods - The matcher for determining what methods to exclude from instrumentation.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but that is excluding any method that is matched by the supplied matcher from instrumentation.

      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but with the given type variable defined for the instrumented type.
    • transform

      public DynamicType.Builder<U> transform(ElementMatcher<? super TypeDescription.Generic> matcher, Transformer<TypeVariableToken> transformer)
      Transforms any type variable that is defined by this type if it is matched by the supplied matcher.
      Parameters:
      matcher - The matcher to decide what type variables to transform.
      transformer - The transformer to apply to the matched type variables.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but with the supplied transformer applied to all type variables.
    • defineField

      public DynamicType.Builder.FieldDefinition.Optional.Valuable<U> defineField(String name, TypeDefinition type, int modifiers)
      Defines the specified field as a field of the built dynamic type.
      Parameters:
      name - The name of the field.
      type - The type of the field. Can also be TargetType if the field type should be equal to the currently instrumented type.
      modifiers - The modifiers of the field.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but with the given field defined for the instrumented type. Furthermore, it is possible to optionally define a value, annotations or custom attributes for the field.
    • field

      Matches a field that is already declared by the instrumented type. This gives opportunity to change that field's default value, annotations or custom attributes. Using a latent matcher gives opportunity to resolve an ElementMatcher based on the instrumented type before applying the matcher.

      When a type is redefined or rebased, any annotations that the field declared previously is preserved as it is if Byte Buddy is configured to retain such annotations by AnnotationRetention.ENABLED. If any existing annotations should be altered, annotation retention must be disabled.

      If a field is already matched by a previously specified field matcher, the new field definition gets precedence over the previous definition, i.e. the previous field definition is no longer applied.

      Parameters:
      matcher - The matcher that determines what declared fields are affected by the subsequent specification.
      Returns:
      A builder that allows for changing a field's definition.
    • defineMethod

      public DynamicType.Builder.MethodDefinition.ParameterDefinition.Initial<U> defineMethod(String name, TypeDefinition returnType, int modifiers)
      Defines the specified method to be declared by the instrumented type. Method parameters or parameter types, declared exceptions and type variables can be defined in subsequent steps.
      Parameters:

      Returns:
      A builder that allows for further defining the method, either by adding more properties or by defining an implementation.
    • defineConstructor

      public DynamicType.Builder.MethodDefinition.ParameterDefinition.Initial<U> defineConstructor(int modifiers)
      Defines the specified constructor to be declared by the instrumented type. Method parameters or parameter types, declared exceptions and type variables can be defined in subsequent steps.
      Parameters:
      modifiers - The constructor's modifiers.
      Returns:
      A builder that allows for further defining the constructor, either by adding more properties or by defining an implementation.
    • invokable

      Matches a method or constructor that is already declared or inherited by the instrumented type. This gives opportunity to change or to override that method's or constructor's implementation, default value, annotations or custom attributes. It is also possible to make a method abstract. Using a latent matcher gives opportunity to resolve an ElementMatcher based on the instrumented type before applying the matcher.

      When a type is redefined or rebased, any annotations that the method or constructor declared previously is preserved as it is if Byte Buddy is configured to retain such annotations by AnnotationRetention.ENABLED. If any existing annotations should be altered, annotation retention must be disabled.

      If a method or constructor is already matched by a previously specified matcher, the new definition gets precedence over the previous definition, i.e. the previous definition is no longer applied.

      Note that the specified definition does never apply for methods that are explicitly ignored.

      Important: It is possible to instrument the dynamic type's initializer. Depending on the used TypeResolutionStrategy, the type initializer might be run before Byte Buddy could apply any LoadedTypeInitializers which are responsible for preparing the instrumented type prior to the initializer's execution. For preparing the type prior to executing the initializer, an TypeResolutionStrategy.Active resolver must be chosen.

      Parameters:
      matcher - The matcher that determines what declared methods or constructors are affected by the subsequent specification.
      Returns:
      A builder that allows for changing a method's or constructor's definition.

      type - The record component's type.
      Returns:
      A new builder that is equal to this builder but also defines the supplied record component.

    • recordComponent

      Matches a record component that is already declared by the instrumented type. This gives opportunity to change that record component's annotations or custom attributes.

      When a type is redefined or rebased, any annotations that the field declared previously is preserved as it is if Byte Buddy is configured to retain such annotations by AnnotationRetention.ENABLED. If any existing annotations should be altered, annotation retention must be disabled.

      If a record component is already matched by a previously specified record component matcher, the new record component definition gets precedence over the previous definition, i.e. the previous record component definition is no longer applied.

    • make

      public DynamicType.Unloaded<U> make()

      Creates the dynamic type this builder represents. If the specified dynamic type is not legal, an IllegalStateException is thrown.

      Other than DynamicType.Builder.make(TypePool), this method supplies a context-dependant type pool to the underlying class writer. Supplying a type pool only makes sense if custom byte code is created by adding a custom AsmVisitorWrapper where ASM might be required to compute stack map frames by processing information over any mentioned type's class hierarchy.

      The dynamic type is initialized using a TypeResolutionStrategy.Passive strategy. Using this strategy, no LoadedTypeInitializer is run during the execution of the type's initializer such that no Implementation used for executing the initializer must rely on such an initializer.

      Specified by:
      make in interface DynamicType.Builder<U>
      Overrides:
      make in class DynamicType.Builder.AbstractBase<U>
