- All Implemented Interfaces:
    LoadTimeWeaver

      public class WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver
      extends Object
      implements LoadTimeWeaver

- - ### Constructor Summary

    Constructors
    Constructor and Description
    `WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver()` Creates a new instance of the `WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver` class using the default `class loader`.
    `WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver(ClassLoader classLoader)` Creates a new instance of the `WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver` class using the supplied `ClassLoader`.

  - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `void` | `addTransformer(ClassFileTransformer transformer)` Add a `ClassFileTransformer` to be applied by this `LoadTimeWeaver`.
    `ClassLoader` | `getInstrumentableClassLoader()` Return a `ClassLoader` that supports instrumentation through AspectJ-style load-time weaving based on user-defined `ClassFileTransformers`.
    `ClassLoader` | `getThrowawayClassLoader()` Return a throwaway `ClassLoader`, enabling classes to be loaded and inspected without affecting the parent `ClassLoader`.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver

          public WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver()

      Creates a new instance of the `WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver` class using the default `class loader`.
      See Also:
        `ClassUtils.getDefaultClassLoader()`

    - #### WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver

          public WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver(ClassLoader classLoader)

      Creates a new instance of the `WebLogicLoadTimeWeaver` class using the supplied `ClassLoader`.
      Parameters:
        `classLoader` - the `ClassLoader` to delegate to for weaving (must not be `null`)

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### addTransformer

          public void addTransformer(ClassFileTransformer transformer)

      Description copied from interface: `LoadTimeWeaver`
      Add a `ClassFileTransformer` to be applied by this `LoadTimeWeaver`.
      Specified by:
        `addTransformer` in interface `LoadTimeWeaver`
      Parameters:
        `transformer` - the `ClassFileTransformer` to add

    - #### getInstrumentableClassLoader

          public ClassLoader getInstrumentableClassLoader()

      Description copied from interface: `LoadTimeWeaver`
      Return a `ClassLoader` that supports instrumentation through AspectJ-style load-time weaving based on user-defined `ClassFileTransformers`.

      May be the current `ClassLoader`, or a `ClassLoader` created by this `LoadTimeWeaver` instance.

      Specified by:
        `getInstrumentableClassLoader` in interface `LoadTimeWeaver`
      Returns:
        the `ClassLoader` which will expose instrumented classes according to the registered transformers

    - #### getThrowawayClassLoader

          public ClassLoader getThrowawayClassLoader()

      Description copied from interface: `LoadTimeWeaver`
      Return a throwaway `ClassLoader`, enabling classes to be loaded and inspected without affecting the parent `ClassLoader`.

      Should not return the same instance of the `ClassLoader` returned from an invocation of `LoadTimeWeaver.getInstrumentableClassLoader()`.

      Specified by:
        `getThrowawayClassLoader` in interface `LoadTimeWeaver`
      Returns:
        a temporary throwaway `ClassLoader`; should return a new instance for each call, with no existing state
