- Analyze Your Classes by Vikram Goyal - [Clicks: 67]
The Byte Code Engineering Library (BCEL) from the Apache-Jakarta stable helps the average developers by analyzing and manipulating the structure of class files. This article gives an introduction to this API. I will start with an introduction to the Java class file format, which is important to understand in order to manipulate it. I will follow it up with the basics of BCEL, the BCEL Application Programming Interface (API), and some examples of how to use it. Finally, I will round the article off with pointers to where you can get more information and help.
