is it possible to disable javac’s inlining of static final variables?

by

Item 93 of Java Puzzlers (Joshua Bloch) says that you can work round this by preventing the final value from being considered a constant. For example:

public class A {
  public static final int INT_VALUE = Integer.valueOf(1000).intValue();
  public static final String STRING_VALUE = "foo".toString();
}

Of course none of this is relevant if you don’t have access to the code that defines the constants.
