Method Summary

Modifier and Type

Method

Description

List<MethodDescription.Token>

extractConstructors(TypeDescription instrumentedType)

Extracts constructors for a given super type.

MethodRegistry

inject(TypeDescription instrumentedType, MethodRegistry methodRegistry)

Returns a method registry that is capable of creating byte code for the constructors that were provided by the extractConstructors(TypeDescription) method of this instance.

Method Details
- extractConstructors
  
  List<MethodDescription.Token> extractConstructors(TypeDescription instrumentedType)
  
  Extracts constructors for a given super type. The extracted constructor signatures will then be imitated by the created dynamic type.
  
  Parameters:
  
  instrumentedType - The type for which the constructors should be created.
  
  Returns:
  
  A list of tokens that describe the constructors that are to be implemented.
- inject
  
  MethodRegistry inject(TypeDescription instrumentedType, MethodRegistry methodRegistry)
  
  Returns a method registry that is capable of creating byte code for the constructors that were provided by the extractConstructors(TypeDescription) method of this instance.
  
  Parameters:
  
  instrumentedType - The instrumented type.
  
  methodRegistry - The original method registry.
  
  Returns:
  
  A method registry that is capable of providing byte code for the constructors that were added by this strategy.
