Issue
I am trying to generate a random number with the instrumented code. For that I have added following expression to generate a random number. But it is throwing a verify Error as given below.
method.addLocalVariable("instMethod_correlationId", CtClass.longType);
beforeBuilder.append("instMethod_correlationId = Long.valueOf(String.valueOf(System.nanoTime()) + String.valueOf(Math.round(Math.random())));");
I have added a long variable and assign the above generated value. But I am getting following exception during the run time. But if I run the same number generation in a normal project it doesn't throw any exceptions.

What should I do to overcome this? What am I doing wrong here?
Solution
It seems you hit a bug in Javassist’s byte code generator. Here is the disassembled code as reported from the VerifyError
. Note that due to the absence of the constant pool in the exception message, the actual target methods are guessed from your source code (but it looks plausible):
0 invokestatic [876]
3 lstore_3
4 new [878] guess: new StringBuilder
7 dup
8 invokespecial [879] guess: StringBuilder.<init>
11 invokestatic [876] guess: System.nanoTime()
14 invokestatic [883] guess: String.valueOf(long)
17 invokevirtual [886] guess: StringBuilder.append(String)
20 invokestatic [892] guess: Math.random()
23 invokestatic [896] guess: Math.round(double)
26 invokestatic [883] guess: String.valueOf(long)
29 invokevirtual [886] guess: StringBuilder.append(String)
32 invokevirtual [897] guess: StringBuilder.toString()
35 invokestatic [902] guess: Long.valueOf(String)
38 i2l
39 lstore <5>
… rest omitted
Note that the method invocations match your source code fragment (being static
or virtual as expected and being the same reference where supposed to be the same), whereas the instruction at location 38
, the one rejected by the verifier, is a spurious i2l
instruction (a conversion from int
to long
). At this place, an unboxing conversion from Long
to long
should happen. Since the following lstore
instruction will store a long
value into a local variable, it seems that Javassist got your local variable declaration right.
Note that the first two instructions indicate that there is another instrumentation happening; since it’s invoking the same method as the instruction at location 11
, which is supposed to be System.nanoTime
, it seems the other instrumentation is intended to measure the method’s overall execution time. But that shouldn’t affect your instrumentation code.
You may contact the authors of Javassist to find out whether Long
unboxing should work. At the same time, you may workaround the problem by using Long.parseLong
instead of Long.valueOf
to avoid the boxing/unboxing in the first place. You may also simplify the operation from the generated code’s perspective by using String.concat
instead of the +
operator as this eliminates the need to deal with StringBuilder
internally:
Replace
method.addLocalVariable("instMethod_correlationId", CtClass.longType);
beforeBuilder.append("instMethod_correlationId = Long.valueOf(String.valueOf(System.nanoTime()) + String.valueOf(Math.round(Math.random())));");
with
method.addLocalVariable("instMethod_correlationId", CtClass.longType);
beforeBuilder.append("instMethod_correlationId = Long.parseLong(String.valueOf(System.nanoTime()).concat(String.valueOf(Math.round(Math.random()))));");
This should lower the requirements to Javassist’s compiling capabilities and workaround the bug triggered by your original code fragment.
