I think that sizeOf() will work incorrectly if class does not have any field. Probably its return statement can be fixed as

return maximumOffset == 0 ? maximumOffset : maximumOffset + 8;

Line 140

directIntArray.setValue(maximum, 1);

needs to be

directIntArray.setValue(maximum-1, 1);

Indexes in arrays are 0-based. Same goes for gets. Leaving like this causes fatal errors/core dumps in many versions of the JDK
