Hi,
since ASM 4, ASM is fully backward compatible (the build script fails otherwise),
we try to add new public methods only on major releases but sometimes we fail (*),
major releases are released at the same time as the release of Java, ASM4 -> jdk 7, ASM5 -> jdk8, upcoming ASM 6 -> jdk9.

* that why the javadoc of ASM 5 is the 5.1 while the javadoc of ASM 4 is the 4.0
