Getting a class bytcode on android

I want to send on the wire a class file (.class) for execution on a remote server. I can not use serialization, because the class does not exist on server side, and I want to add new classes dynamically. I don't want to use RMI.

On Dekstop Java, it's easy to do with:

• Loading the class with Class<?> clazz = Class.forName("mypackage.MyClass").


• Getting access to the file (or jar container) with URL url = clazz.getResource("MyClass.class")

On Android, I succeeded loading a class instance with this hack butclazz.getResource() always returns null. (And this is logical as Dalvik storage format is different).

I have tried Apache BCEL, but it does not work. Following code throws a ClassNotFoundException:

 JavaClass clazz = Repository .lookupClass("mypackage.mMyClass");
 byte[] b = clazz.getBytes();

Is there a way to translate a Dalvik byte code to regular class byte code on Android so that I can rebuild a .class file from it and then send it on the wire?

Thanks.
