I want to mutate a function of a class that is loaded at runtime (it has a bug in it but the project is long gone so i cannot build the binary). What i want to do instead is write a piece of code which will run during the application initialization phase and mutate this function so that it works fine. And simply keep that code around until the replacement is ready.
Having no experience with bytecode modification what library could i use to modify and reload a class at runtime? Specifically i need to replace a throw instruction with a noop instruction (i did this once using hex editor but lost the binary).
Also if you know any tutorial on how to do something like that please share.
I can see many libraries for doing this but i cant know which ones are good/bad do the job...
