I was rummaging around the 1.4beta3 api today, as you do, and noticed that the ClassLoader class has added some methods to set the assertion status on a class or package; provided a class has not been initialised stuff can be turned on or off: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/lang/ClassLoader.html
It should therefore be possible to flip asserts on and off inside a running JVM. woo hoo, as they say -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
