denizen-reflect 2.4.0

Add:

• Java Scripts (.java Script Support):

Write and execute native Java classes directly in your plugins/Denizen/scripts/ folder. They compile on-the-fly during "/ex reload" and run with 100% native Java performance.

The // @persistent State Control

Control the compilation lifecycle by adding a // @persistent comment at the very top of your .java file:

• Volatile (Default - No comment): Recompiles from scratch on every "/ex reload". Best for active development and quick testing.
• Persistent (Add // @persistent): Compiles only once and "freezes" in memory, protecting static variables from resetting. Use this when you have completely finished developing the class.

Architecture:

To prevent memory leaks during reloads, the system uses a strict classloader hierarchy. You must follow these visibility rules:

• ✅ Volatile scripts CAN see and use Persistent classes.
• ✅ Persistent classes CAN see and use other Persistent classes.
• ❌ Persistent classes CANNOT reference Volatile scripts. Doing so will trap the old volatile script in memory and eventually crash the server with an OutOfMemoryError.

Lifecycle Methods:

You can optionally implement two static methods that the system invokes automatically:

• public static void init(): Executed immediately after successful compilation.
• public static void shutdown(): Executed right before the script is reloaded or deleted (used for cleanup).

Fix:

• TagCommand:

Fixed custom base tags not supporting sub-tags.

• CustomCommand:

Fixed custom commands ignoring execution determinations.
