Addresses #160 by pointing Javassist at a neighbour (a class in the same package) class of the class we're generating, allowing it to avoid using the deprecated
ClassLoader.defineClass
(which now requires 'add-opens' to use because Javassist must use reflection to make the method visible), and instead useMethodHandles
.This implementation introduces a protected method
instantiateClass
that can be overridden byExpressionCompiler
subclassers who are customising the exact mechanics of the class instantiation process if needed.
