Is there any tool which provides Java dynamic code generation and that also supports generics?
Javassist for example, is the kind of tool that I need, but it does not support generics.
I wrote a small lib which uses the Java 6 Compiler API, however as far as I know it depends on JDK. Is there a way to specify another compiler? Or to ship with my application only the parts that I need to invoke with the Java Compiler API?

It seems you can manipulate and read generic info with Javaassist. See

I have done further reading on how this is implemented by the compiler and
finally found out the answer I was looking for.
You can defenitely do that with javaassist. The key class is
javassist.bytecode.SignatureAttribute.
From a CtMethod, i've obtained the methodInfo I add a Signature attribute. You can do it with something like:
CtMethod method = ....
MethodInfo methodInfo = method.getMethodInfo();
SignatureAttribute signatureAttribute = new
SignatureAttribute(methodInfo.getConstPool(),
"()Ljava/util/List;");
methodInfo.addAttribute(signatureAttribute);
If your more interesed in reading the signature with the generics inside, you
can use the methodInfo.getAttribute(SignatureAttribute.tag).
I hope this helped.
