But whether it's acceptable or not always depends on the application in question. For some applications the performance hit from using reflection could be negligible.
Anyhow I would still want to optimize these parts of mina-sm using byte code generation and, if possible, eliminate the need for reflection entirely. -- Niklas Therning www.spamdrain.net
