Bridge ASM

Bridge is a post-compile maven plugin that injects new advanced functionality into the Java language despite using existing semantics. Currently, we add the following features:

• Redirection of constructors, methods, & fields with @Bridge
• Unsafe native referencing of classes, constructors, methods, & fields with Invocation
• Unrestricted goto execution jumping with Label & Jump
• Automatic multi-release class forking with Invocation.LANGUAGE_LEVEL
• Native unchecked casting, throwing, & handling with Unchecked
• Post-compile class hierarchy modification with @Adopt
• Public implementation hiding with @Synthetic
• Optional stripping of debug metadata

This project could always benefit from your submission of additional automated testing!
