The `ognl` command can execute code dynamically.

Check the usage: `ognl --help`{{execute T2}}

### Invoke the static method

`ognl '@java.lang.System@out.println("hello ognl")'`{{execute T2}}

You can check the output of the process in `Terminal 1`, and find that it displays `hello ognl`.

### Find the ClassLoader of the UserController

`sc -d com.example.demo.arthas.user.UserController | grep classLoaderHash`{{execute T2}}

```bash
$ sc -d com.example.demo.arthas.user.UserController | grep classLoaderHash
 classLoaderHash   1be6f5c3
```

Please write down your classLoaderHash here since it's dynamic. In the case here, it's `1be6f5c3`.

if you use`-c`, you have to manually type hashcode by `-c <hashcode>`.

```bash
$ ognl -c 1be6f5c3 @com.example.demo.arthas.user.UserController@logger
```

For classloader with only one instance, it can be specified by `--classLoaderClass` using class name, which is more convenient to use.

```bash
$ ognl --classLoaderClass org.springframework.boot.loader.LaunchedURLClassLoader  @org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication@logger
@Slf4jLocationAwareLog[
    FQCN=@String[org.apache.commons.logging.LogAdapter$Slf4jLocationAwareLog],
    name=@String[org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication],
    logger=@Logger[Logger[org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication]],
]
```

The value of `--classloaderclass` is the class name of classloader. It can only work when it matches a unique classloader instance. The purpose is to facilitate the input of general commands. However, `-c <hashcode>` is dynamic.

### Get static fields of static classes

Get the `logger` field of the `UserController` class:

`ognl --classLoaderClass org.springframework.boot.loader.LaunchedURLClassLoader @com.example.demo.arthas.user.UserController@logger`{{execute T2}}

Control the number of expansion layers of the return value with the `-x` parameter. such as:

`ognl --classLoaderClass org.springframework.boot.loader.LaunchedURLClassLoader -x 2 @com.example.demo.arthas.user.UserController@logger`{{execute T2}}

### Execute multi-line expressions

Return a list:

`ognl '#value1=@System@getProperty("java.home"), #value2=@System@getProperty("java.runtime.name"), {#value1, #value2}'`{{execute T2}}

```bash
$ ognl '#value1=@System@getProperty("java.home"), #value2=@System@getProperty("java.runtime.name"), {#value1, #value2}'
@ArrayList[
    @String[/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_162.jdk/Contents/Home/jre],
    @String[Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment],
]
```
