Hi,
Some of that can be handled by string constant updates. But, having string updates specifically for calls to Class.forName would be safer.
The easiest form of this to handle is when the call uses a string constant. Calls which take a variable could be handled, but we would need to inject a method which did a string replacement, which would mean embedding a string lookup table. Embedding the entire table can be avoided if there are class specific replacements, but that starts getting to be a lot of detail to manage.
Has there been a specific case where the replacement was needed? So far, features have been added based on specific requirements.
Thx!

That issue [1] should have been copied over. I guess I somehow missed it. I will open a transformer issue to capture this.
Thanks for noticing this.

Hi,
In the original Eclipse Transformer prototype there was an issue for handling Class#forName and friends. I don't recall seeing that issue on the Eclipse Transformer project. Do we still need to add Java reflection handling? Should we migrate the old issue or create a new one?
Scott
