----------------------------------
Summary: Explore the use of asm-jdk-bridge for Groovy
Key: GROOVY-11757
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11757
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Paul King
We should explore further the capabilities of the adapters provided by:
https://github.com/raphw/asm-jdk-bridge
Currently, to fully support reading classes from very recent JDK versions, we
wait until the ASM library is re-released (typically soon after a JDK version
is released). One usage of the above library might allow the Class File API to
provide a fallback of the functionality we need for versions of the JDK not yet
known by the version of ASM we supply.
We should explore this possibility to see if the functionality we require works
as expected. The goal wouldn't be full support for future JDK versions but
rather still being able to read
class files on a later JDK when running the Groovy compiler on that JDK.
