We should try to figure out if Reflection and Byte Code generation is still the best option for Zest. Perhaps these new features are more suitable. First task is to find a comprehensive explanation of what these things are, as the Javadocs are incredibly hard to understand, as I think I am lacking some bigger picture explanation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
