Class ReflectionUtils

java.lang.Object
com.cryptomorin.xseries.ReflectionUtils

public final class ReflectionUtils extends Object
ReflectionUtils - Reflection handler for NMS and CraftBukkit.
Caches the packet related methods and is asynchronous.

This class does not handle null checks as most of the requests are from the other utility classes that already handle null checks.

Clientbound Packets are considered fake updates to the client without changing the actual data. Since all the data is handled by the server.

A useful resource used to compare mappings is Mini's Mapping Viewer

  • Field Details

    • VERSION

      public static final String VERSION
      We use reflection mainly to avoid writing a new class for version barrier. The version barrier is for NMS that uses the Minecraft version as the main package name.

      E.g. EntityPlayer in 1.15 is in the class net.minecraft.server.v1_15_R1 but in 1.14 it's in net.minecraft.server.v1_14_R1 In order to maintain cross-version compatibility we cannot import these classes.

      Performance is not a concern for these specific statically initialized values.

    • VER

      public static final int VER
      The raw minor version number. E.g. v1_17_R1 to 17
