The JOIE Environment

 

This section outlines how load-time transformation works in the JOIE environment. We first describe how transformers are installed and invoked using the JOIE class loader. We then present the key facilities of the JOIE toolkit that allow transformers to parse, analyze, and modify the transformed classes.

• The JOIE ClassLoader
• Transformers and the ClassLoader
• Load-time Reflection
