Offline instrumentation required to enable coverage of runtime transformed classes (e.g. Powermock) about jacoco HOT 8 CLOSED

I need to modify the agent to startup the same runtime as was used by the instrumenttask.

This now works but needs tests.

I had a quick look at the change set: Note that a important use case for offline instrumentation are environments where no Java agent is available (e.g. Android VM).

from jacoco.

Good point. Do you have any suggestions for how to initialise the runtime without an agent?

I wonder if a new runtime could be used which would insert explicit calls to a JaCoCo class. A static initializer on the JaCoCo class coud initialize the runtime.

Yes, this is the only way I currently see: A direct dependency from instrumented classes to the JaCoCo runtime.

Here is a implementation for offline mode: jacoco#58

from jacoco.

Thanks for the reference. My fork already has offline instrumentation - is your implementation similar? I'll check myself later but I'm on my phone just now.

Also, merry Xmas :)
