Question about MyBatis external dependencies

[François Schiettecatte]

Hi

I am currently using mybatis 3.2.2 and doing some code cleanup as well as thinking ahead.

I think I read on this mailing list that asm-3.3.1.jar and cglib-2.2.2.jar were going be to dropped as dependencies in future releases of mybatis, namely 3.2.3 onwards. I checked the archives but could not find any mention of this, am I dreaming this?

Thanks

François

There was some discussion of replacing cglib with javassist.  I can't remember what happened with that effort.

Neither of these are required and are only used with lazy loading is enabled - which usually offers very little actual benefit and should never be enabled "just because it sounds cool".  MyBatis works very well with no external dependencies.

3.2 can use Javassist instead of CGLIB. But, as Jeff pointed, if you are using lazy load you need at least one of them.
