The org.objectweb.asm package should work with JDK 1.1, or even with JDK 1.0 if Type is not used. Indeed, this package only requires the following JDK classes and methods: • in java.io: InputStream, IOException (only in two constructors of ClassReader) • in java.lang.reflect: Method (only in Type) • in java.lang: • Object, String, StringBuffer • Long, Double, Float, Void, Byte, Boolean … • System.arraycopy • ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader, ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream (only in one constructor of ClassReader) The asm.util and asm.tree packages require JDK 1.2, since they use the List interface and the ArrayList class.
