The substitued
AnnotationParsergoes through theMetadataAccessorinstead of the constant pool to get the reflection metadata, which requires a layer number to know in which layer's metadata to go look into.Sadly, the
AnnotationParsermethods lose track of the initial class that was queried and only keeps track of the constant pool, which is alwaysnullin Native Image.To keep track of the layer number, the substitued constant pool now contains a
layerIdfield that is set by theDynamicHub. This is only done in Layered Image, so the performance in default Native Image is not affected.
