Dynamically add annotation to an existing class
- by ng
I have the following class
public class Person {
...
}
I would like to create another class that would look like this.
@SomeAnnotation
public class Person {
...
}
Via a simple method like so.
public static Class addAnnotation(Class originalType, Class<? extends Annotation> annotation) {
// what goes here?
}
Is there an easy way to do this via ASM for example? What dependencies would I need. I have tried to Google this however the examples I have found are either incomplete or are doing something else. Other frameworks such as javassist would be just as good.
