BytecodeProvider (Hibernate Core Aggregator 3.6.10.Final API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

BytecodeProviderImpl, BytecodeProviderImpl
```
public interface BytecodeProvider
```
Contract for providers of bytecode services to Hibernate.
Bytecode requirements break down into basically 3 areas
1. proxy generation (both for runtime-lazy-loading and basic proxy generation) getProxyFactoryFactory()
2. bean reflection optimization getReflectionOptimizer(java.lang.Class, java.lang.String[], java.lang.String[], java.lang.Class[])
3. field-access instrumentation getTransformer(org.hibernate.bytecode.util.ClassFilter, org.hibernate.bytecode.util.FieldFilter)

Method Summary

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`ProxyFactoryFactory`	`getProxyFactoryFactory()` Retrieve the specific factory for this provider capable of generating run-time proxies for lazy-loading purposes.
`ReflectionOptimizer`	`getReflectionOptimizer(Class clazz, String[] getterNames, String[] setterNames, Class[] types)` Retrieve the ReflectionOptimizer delegate for this provider capable of generating reflection optimization components.
`ClassTransformer`	`getTransformer(ClassFilter classFilter, FieldFilter fieldFilter)` Generate a ClassTransformer capable of performing bytecode manipulation.

- Method Detail
  - getProxyFactoryFactory
```
ProxyFactoryFactory getProxyFactoryFactory()
```
    Retrieve the specific factory for this provider capable of generating run-time proxies for lazy-loading purposes.
    
    Returns:
    The provider specific factory.
  - getReflectionOptimizer
```
ReflectionOptimizer getReflectionOptimizer(Class clazz,
                                         String[] getterNames,
                                         String[] setterNames,
                                         Class[] types)
```
    Retrieve the ReflectionOptimizer delegate for this provider capable of generating reflection optimization components.
    
    Parameters:
    clazz - The class to be reflected upon.
    getterNames - Names of all property getters to be accessed via reflection.
    setterNames - Names of all property setters to be accessed via reflection.
    types - The types of all properties to be accessed.
    
    Returns:
    The reflection optimization delegate.
  - getTransformer
```
ClassTransformer getTransformer(ClassFilter classFilter,
                              FieldFilter fieldFilter)
```
    Generate a ClassTransformer capable of performing bytecode manipulation.
    
    Parameters:
    classFilter - filter used to limit which classes are to be instrumented via this ClassTransformer.
    fieldFilter - filter used to limit which fields are to be instrumented via this ClassTransformer.
    
    Returns:
    The appropriate ClassTransformer.
