What is the reason why classes with a recursive definition cannot be generated?
For example, the call to 'toClass()' in the following test case produces the exception stacktrace below : | import javassist.CannotCompileException; | import javassist.ClassPool; | import javassist.CtField; | import javassist.CtNewClass; | import javassist.NotFoundException; | import junit.framework.TestCase; | | public class TestRecursiveClass extends TestCase { | public void test() throws NotFoundException, CannotCompileException { | ClassPool pool=ClassPool.getDefault(); | | CtNewClass recursiveClass = new CtNewClass("RecursiveClass", pool , false, pool.get("java.lang.Object")); | CtField f=new CtField(recursiveClass, "instance", recursiveClass); | recursiveClass.addField(f, "null"); | | recursiveClass.toClass(); | } | } | Exception stacktrace : | javassist.CannotCompileException: by javassist.CannotCompileException: cannot find RecursiveClass | at javassist.ClassPool.toClass(ClassPool.java:816) | at javassist.ClassPool.toClass(ClassPool.java:765) | at javassist.CtClass.toClass(CtClass.java:985) | at TestRecursiveClass.test(TestRecursiveClass.java:16) | (rest of stack trace omitted) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3943857#3943857 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3943857 ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
