#458: Extend JAVA FFI to allow access to non-public methods -------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: aruttenberg | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: (A)MOP | Version: Keywords: | Parent Tickets: -------------------------+---------------------- I'm mixed as to the interface.

Option 1: Global variable says whether non-public methods available during jcall, jmethod and friends

Option 2: Provide alternative calls e.g jcall-any, jmethod-any etc that

Ideally cache calls to setAccessible so they are done only the first time.

This functionality is important because 1) it is not infrequent that libraries need to be debugged and to do that we need to be able to call private and protected methods 2) Introspection

It is possible to manage this without messing with jcall but it is slower and ugly.
