Class AccessibleFieldHandler

java.lang.Object

io.github.arasdenizhan.core.handler.AccessibleFieldHandler

public final class AccessibleFieldHandler
extends Object

Utility class to efficiently retrieve the value of a field via reflection.

Instead of blindly calling setAccessible(true) on each access, this class first checks if the field is already accessible using canAccess(). If not accessible, it enables access explicitly. This avoids unnecessary reflection overhead.

Note: In some JVM implementations, repeated setAccessible(true) calls are cached, which can improve performance slightly, though this behavior is not guaranteed in all Java versions.
