# Tuna Bytes

![A tuna byte :)](https://i.imgur.com/15VLkMI.jpg)

Tuna-bytes is an all-purpose powerful class and bytecode manipulation mixins for Java, which is intended at those with minimal understanding of the Java bytecode structure.

## Features

- Full support for the notorious Java 9+ versions, as well as Java 8.

- Does not require access to the source code of classes, and works well even on third-party resources.

- Does not require any knowledge of the Java bytecode.

- Requires zero overhead to get started. Just add Tuna-Bytes as a dependency and as an annotation processor, and Tuna-Bytes will handle the rest.

- Does not require any additional Java execution arguments, like what Java agents do.

7. [**Example**: Mirroring a field or a method](https://github.com/ReflxctionDev/Tuna-Bytes/wiki/Mirroring)

# Drawbacks

Just like any other bytecode manipulation library, **manipulating a class after is has been loaded is not possible** without things like instrumentation, agents or such. Tuna-bytes assumes that any class it is about to modify has not been loaded, and will otherwise throw an exception. To suppress `Class XX has already been loaded` exceptions, use `MixinsBootstrap.init(true)`
