Dynamic Proxy in JDK

Proxy is a class which can get the proxy class and create the proxy instance. It has a private default constructor and a protected constructor with a contractor argument: InvocationHandler.

InvocationHandler is an interface which we can apply our code into the generated proxy class. It has only one method: Object invoke(Object proxy, Method method, Object[] args)

Proxy has four static methods:

static Class<?> getProxyClass(ClassLoader loader, Class<?>... interfaces)
static Object newProxyInstance(ClassLoader loader, Class<?>[] interfaces, InvocationHandler h)
static boolean isProxyClass(Class<?> cl)
static InvocationHandler getInvocationHandler(Object proxy)

Now let us see how to generate a proxy class in memory. The main logic is in ProxyClassFactory: firstly it call the ProxyGenerator.generateProxyClass(proxyName, interfaces, accessFlags) to generate the bytes of class file, and then it invokes the native method of Proxy static native Class<?> defineClass0(ClassLoader loader, String name, byte[] b, int off, int len) to load and resolve the bytes into a Class.

So the two static methods ProxyGenerator.generateProxyClass(..) and Proxy.defineClass0(..) are very important.

Proxy.defineClass0(..) makes that we don’t need to define a ClassLoader to load a class from raw bytes. We will use it as a utility method later.

ProxyGenerator has no secret since it just generates the bytecode following the class file format in the JVM specification.

// Target.java
package dynamicproxy;

public interface Target {

    void foo();
}
// TargetProxyInvocationHandler.java
package dynamicproxy;

import java.lang.reflect.InvocationHandler;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;

public class TargetProxyInvocationHandler implements InvocationHandler {
    public Object invoke(Object proxy, Method method, Object[] args) throws Throwable {
        if("foo".equals(method.getName())) {
            System.out.println("foo invoked");
        }
        return null;
    }
}
// Main.java
package dynamicproxy;

import java.lang.reflect.Proxy;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.getProperties().put("sun.misc.ProxyGenerator.saveGeneratedFiles","true");
        Target b = (Target) Proxy.newProxyInstance(Target.class.getClassLoader(), new Class[] {Target.class}, new TargetProxyInvocationHandler());
        System.out.println(b.getClass().toString());
        b.foo();
    }

Implement Dynamic Proxy supporting Class

A restriction of the Proxy provided by JDK is that we can only get a proxy for an interface rather than a class.

But can we implement this feature on our own?

Obviously, we need to modify ProxyGenerator to control the generation of the final class as our expectation.

And this is the modified Proxy which I name ProxyEx:

        byte[] bytes = ProxyGeneratorEx.generateProxyClass(superclass.getSimpleName() + "$", superclass, interfaces);
        return defineClass0(loader, "$Dog", bytes, 0, bytes.length);
    }

    /**

        Class<?> proxyClass = getProxyClass(loader, superclass, interfaces);
        try {
            Constructor constructor = proxyClass.getConstructor(InvocationHandler.class);
            constructor.setAccessible(true);
            return constructor.newInstance(h);
        } catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (InstantiationException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return null;
    }


    private static Class<?> defineClass0(ClassLoader loader, String name, byte[] b, int off, int len) {
        Class proxyClass = Proxy.class;
        try {
            Method defineClass0Method = proxyClass.getDeclaredMethod("defineClass0", ClassLoader.class, String.class, byte[].class, int.class, int.class);
            defineClass0Method.setAccessible(true);
            return (Class<?>) defineClass0Method.invoke(null, loader, name, b, off, len);
        } catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return null;
    }
}

Now let’s get a try with our dynamic proxy.

// Dog.java
package dynamicproxy.supportclass;

public class Dog {
    public void bark(){}
}
// DogInvocationHandler.java
package dynamicproxy.supportclass;

import java.lang.reflect.InvocationHandler;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;

public class DogInvocationHandler implements InvocationHandler {
    public Object invoke(Object proxy, Method method, Object[] args) throws Throwable {
        if("bark".equals(method.getName())) {
            System.out.println("dog barked");
        }
        return null;
    }
}
// Main.java
package dynamicproxy.supportclass;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.getProperties().put("sun.misc.ProxyGeneratorEx.saveGeneratedFiles","true");

//        Class aClass = ProxyEx.getProxyClass(A.class.getClassLoader(), A.class, new Class[]{});
        Dog dog = (Dog) ProxyEx.newProxyInstance(Dog.class.getClassLoader(), Dog.class, new Class[0], new DogInvocationHandler());
        dog.bark();
    }
}

Here you should see the console will print “dog barked”.
