CGLIB是一个强大的高性能的代码生成包。它广泛地被许多AOP的框架使用，例如Spring AOP和dynaop，为他们提供方法的Interception（拦截）。EasyMock和jMock是通过使用模仿（moke）对象来测试Java代码的包。它们都通过使用CGLIB来为那些没有接口的类创建模仿（moke）对象。
CGLIB包的底层通过使用一个小而快的字节码处理框架ASM，来转换字节码并生成新的类。除了CGLIB包，脚本语言例如Groovy和BeanShell，也是使用ASM来生成Java的字节码。当然不鼓励直接使用ASM，因为它要求你必须对JVM内部结构包括class文件的格式和指令集都很熟悉。
CGLIB代理的类是委托给CglibAopProxy类去实现的。Cglib2AopProxy的入口是在getProxy，也就是说在CglibAopProxy类的getProxy方法中实现了Enhancer的创建及接口封装。
public Object getProxy() {
return getProxy(null);
}
public Object getProxy(ClassLoader classLoader) {
if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
logger.debug("Creating CGLIB proxy: target source is " + this.advised.getTargetSource());
}
try {
Class<?> rootClass = this.advised.getTargetClass();
Assert.state(rootClass != null, "Target class must be available for creating a CGLIB proxy");
Class<?> proxySuperClass = rootClass;
if (ClassUtils.isCglibProxyClass(rootClass)) {
proxySuperClass = rootClass.getSuperclass();
Class<?>[] additionalInterfaces = rootClass.getInterfaces();
for (Class<?> additionalInterface : additionalInterfaces) {
this.advised.addInterface(additionalInterface);
}
}
//验证Class
validateClassIfNecessary(proxySuperClass);
//创建及配置Enhancer
Enhancer enhancer = createEnhancer();
if (classLoader != null) {
enhancer.setClassLoader(classLoader);
if (classLoader instanceof SmartClassLoader &&
((SmartClassLoader) classLoader).isClassReloadable(proxySuperClass)) {
enhancer.setUseCache(false);
}
}
enhancer.setSuperclass(proxySuperClass);
enhancer.setInterfaces(AopProxyUtils.completeProxiedInterfaces(this.advised));
enhancer.setNamingPolicy(SpringNamingPolicy.INSTANCE);
enhancer.setStrategy(new MemorySafeUndeclaredThrowableStrategy(UndeclaredThrowableException.class));
enhancer.setInterceptDuringConstruction(false);
//设置拦截器
Callback[] callbacks = getCallbacks(rootClass);
Class<?>[] types = new Class<?>[callbacks.length];
for (int x = 0; x < types.length; x++) {
types[x] = callbacks[x].getClass();
}
enhancer.setCallbackFilter(new ProxyCallbackFilter(
this.advised.getConfigurationOnlyCopy(), this.fixedInterceptorMap, this.fixedInterceptorOffset));
enhancer.setCallbackTypes(types);
enhancer.setCallbacks(callbacks);
//生成代理类以及创建代理
Object proxy;
if (this.constructorArgs != null) {
proxy = enhancer.create(this.constructorArgTypes, this.constructorArgs);
}
else {
proxy = enhancer.create();
}
return proxy;
}
catch (CodeGenerationException ex) {
throw new AopConfigException("Could not generate CGLIB subclass of class [" +
this.advised.getTargetClass() + "]: " +
"Common causes of this problem include using a final class or a non-visible class",
ex);
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
throw new AopConfigException("Could not generate CGLIB subclass of class [" +

以上函数完整地阐述了一个创建Spring中的Enhancer的过程，参考Enhancer的文档查看每个步骤的含义，这里最重要的是通过getCallbacks方法设置拦截器链。
private Callback[] getCallbacks(Class<?> rootClass) throws Exception {
//对于expose-proxy属性的处理
boolean exposeProxy = this.advised.isExposeProxy();
boolean isFrozen = this.advised.isFrozen();
boolean isStatic = this.advised.getTargetSource().isStatic();
//将拦截器封装在DynamicAdvisedInterceptor中
Callback aopInterceptor = new DynamicAdvisedInterceptor(this.advised);
// Choose a "straight to target" interceptor. (used for calls that are
// unadvised but can return this). May be required to expose the proxy.
Callback targetInterceptor;
if (exposeProxy) {
targetInterceptor = isStatic ?
new StaticUnadvisedExposedInterceptor(this.advised.getTargetSource().getTarget()) :
new DynamicUnadvisedExposedInterceptor(this.advised.getTargetSource());
}
else {
targetInterceptor = isStatic ?
new StaticUnadvisedInterceptor(this.advised.getTargetSource().getTarget()) :
new DynamicUnadvisedInterceptor(this.advised.getTargetSource());
}
// Choose a "direct to target" dispatcher (used for
// unadvised calls to static targets that cannot return this).
Callback targetDispatcher = isStatic ?
new StaticDispatcher(this.advised.getTargetSource().getTarget()) : new SerializableNoOp();
//将拦截器链加入Callback中
Callback[] mainCallbacks = new Callback[]{
aopInterceptor, // for normal advice
targetInterceptor, // invoke target without considering advice, if optimized
new SerializableNoOp(), // no override for methods mapped to this
targetDispatcher, this.advisedDispatcher,
new EqualsInterceptor(this.advised),
new HashCodeInterceptor(this.advised)
};
Callback[] callbacks;
// If the target is a static one and the advice chain is frozen,
// then we can make some optimisations by sending the AOP calls
// direct to the target using the fixed chain for that method.
if (isStatic && isFrozen) {
Method[] methods = rootClass.getMethods();
Callback[] fixedCallbacks = new Callback[methods.length];
this.fixedInterceptorMap = new HashMap<String, Integer>(methods.length);
// TODO: small memory optimisation here (can skip creation for methods with no advice)
for (int x = 0; x < methods.length; x++) {
List<Object> chain = this.advised.getInterceptorsAndDynamicInterceptionAdvice(methods[x], rootClass);
fixedCallbacks[x] = new FixedChainStaticTargetInterceptor(
chain, this.advised.getTargetSource().getTarget(), this.advised.getTargetClass());
this.fixedInterceptorMap.put(methods[x].toString(), x);
}
// Now copy both the callbacks from mainCallbacks
// and fixedCallbacks into the callbacks array.
callbacks = new Callback[mainCallbacks.length + fixedCallbacks.length];
System.arraycopy(mainCallbacks, 0, callbacks, 0, mainCallbacks.length);
System.arraycopy(fixedCallbacks, 0, callbacks, mainCallbacks.length, fixedCallbacks.length);
this.fixedInterceptorOffset = mainCallbacks.length;
}
else {
callbacks = mainCallbacks;
}
return callbacks;
}
在getCallback中Spring考虑了很多情况，对于我们来说，只需要理解最常用的就可以了，比如将advised属性封装在DynamicAdvisedInterceptor并加入在callbacks中，这么做的目的是什么呢，如何调用呢？CGLIB中对于方法的拦截是通过将自定义的拦截器（实现MethodInterceptor接口）加入Callback中并在调用代理时直接激活拦截器中的intercept方法来实现的，那么在getCallback中正是实现了这样一个目的，DynamicAdvisedInterceptor继承自MethodInterceptor，加入Callback中后，在再次调用代理时会直接调用DynamicAdvisedInterceptor中的intercept方法，由此推断，对于CGLIB方式实现的代理，其核心逻辑必然在DynamicAdvisedInterceptor中的intercept中。
public Object intercept(Object proxy, Method method, Object[] args, MethodProxy methodProxy) throws Throwable {
Object oldProxy = null;
boolean setProxyContext = false;
Class<?> targetClass = null;
Object target = null;
try {
if (this.advised.exposeProxy) {
// Make invocation available if necessary.
oldProxy = AopContext.setCurrentProxy(proxy);
setProxyContext = true;
}
// May be null. Get as late as possible to minimize the time we
// "own" the target, in case it comes from a pool...
target = getTarget();
if (target != null) {
targetClass = target.getClass();
}
//获取拦截器链
List<Object> chain = this.advised.getInterceptorsAndDynamicInterceptionAdvice(method, targetClass);
Object retVal;
// Check whether we only have one InvokerInterceptor: that is,
// no real advice, but just reflective invocation of the target.
if (chain.isEmpty() && Modifier.isPublic(method.getModifiers())) {
//如果拦截器链为空则直接激活原方法
retVal = methodProxy.invoke(target, args);
}
else {
//进入链
retVal = new CglibMethodInvocation(proxy, target, method, args, targetClass, chain, methodProxy).proceed();
}
retVal = processReturnType(proxy, target, method, retVal);
return retVal;
}
finally {
if (target != null) {
releaseTarget(target);
}
if (setProxyContext) {
// Restore old proxy.
AopContext.setCurrentProxy(oldProxy);
}
}
}
上述的实现与JDK方式实现代理中的invoke方法大同小异，都是首先构造链，然后封装此链进行串联调用，稍有些区别就是在JDK中直接构造ReflectiveMethodInvocation，而在cglib中使用CglibMethodInvocation。CglibMethodInvocation继承自ReflectiveMethodInvocation，但是proceed方法并没有重写。
