Nice, I didn't know that such such convenience library exists.
I wrote lots about code generation and metaprogramming recently on my blog: http://coding-masters.blogspot.com/2010/07/metaprogramming-in-java.html
No we have a few different reflection APIs:
- the one from java.lang.reflect and javax.beans (read only, from loaded .class files)
- the one from Javassist and similar projects (read-write, for .class files, either loaded to JVM or not)
- 'mirror' API from APT (read only, from .java files)
- the API you present here (to .java files)
I would be happy if there existed an API that unified those 4 APIs into one superapi for reflection, manipulation of .class and .java files - in fact they are about the same thing, only the most 'persistence' part of these APIs is different.

One API to rule them all... Could be nice. But I don't know if this is really possible... But if you give it a try: I'd like to take a look at it ;-)
