circular references

[azzazzel]

May be I didn't read the docs carefuly enugh but I can not figure out how to create 2 (or more) classes referencing each other.

Can someone provide an example of how to genearate these two classes for example:

public class A {
 private B b;

 //get instance of B
 public B getB () {
 return b;
 }
}

public class B {
 private A a;

 //get instance of A
 public A getA () {
 }
}

All my attempts ended with "ClassNotFound" exception thrown by javassist at compile time

"Mutual recursive methods" in Section 4.3 of the tutorial
has some hints. To create two classes that refer to each
other, you must first create empty CtClasses for the two
classes and then add fields and methods.

Should have figured this out myself. It's so obvious now.

Now all that's left is to congratulate you the great work you have done on javassist. In today's AOP and DynaBean java world it's a life saver ;)
