Hi, Recently my task involved enabling hibernate reflection optimization in our application.
Versions used: hibernate-core-3.3.1.GA javassist-3.4.GA Below are some thoughts that hopefully could help to improve the product. 1. I have noticed that org.hibernate.bytecode.javassist.BulkAccessorFactory.findAccessors(...) is searching for accessor methods in the optimized entity class only. This means that the methods from the superclasses are not visible during BulkAccessor creation unless overridden by child classes. By enhancing the algorithm to search down the inheritance tree we could avoid creation of redundant methods which increase the code verbosity a lot. In our case almost all the entities are inherited from the base classes having the common entity properties defined, so the reflection optimization does not work for any of them until we override the inherited methods in all the child classes. The implementation is trivial, but I have got a ready prototype if anybody is interested. 2. It seems that it should be also possible to optimize the EntityTuplizer's getPropertyValue and setPropertyValue calls in the similar way how the getPropertyValues and setPropertyValues are currently optimized.
