asm does not work with java8 lambda
I converted a webapp project from java7 to java8. this webapp project uses weld
from JBOSS which uses Javassist and which in turn uses ASM. My app fails at
startup because ASM cannot read lambda expressions and do what it needs to do.
The work around is to not use lambda (even when using java8) that works without
any problems. I would really like to use lambda (as will many others once it
comes out). Is there a plan to make ASM work with java8?
I am not good at ASM, Javassist or such system level things, but I will be happy
to provide a small sample of a project that does not work. In any case, it is
very evident. If you simply upgrade to java8 and use a lamda expression
anywhere, ASM blows up.
Thank you.
