ASM - java.lang.VerifyError: Operand stack overflow Exception

I am using ASM 5.0.3 byte code library with Tomcat 8 and JDK 8. Also I am using

ClassWriter classWriter = new ClassWriter(classReader, ClassWriter.COMPUTE_FRAMES);

and 

classReader.accept(myClassVisitor, ClassReader.SKIP_FRAMES);

Below exception is thrown by ASM

  Caused by: java.lang.VerifyError: Operand stack overflow

How to resolve this issue without using -noverify option?

Edit #1: I also tried using simply COMPUTE_FRAMES as in:

ClassWriter classWriter = new ClassWriter(classReader, ClassWriter.COMPUTE_FRAMES);

and I omitted the below SKIP_FRAMES statement:

//classReader.accept(myClassVisitor, ClassReader.SKIP_FRAMES);

I continue to get the same "Caused by: java.lang.VerifyError: Operand stack overflow" error.

Edit #2: I have tried all of the following combinations and am getting the same error: java.lang.VerifyError: Operand stack overflow Reason:Exceeded max stack size.

  1. ClassWriter.COMPUTE_FRAMES with ClassReader.EXPAND_FRAMES and mv.visitMaxs(maxStack, maxLocals);
  2. ClassWriter.COMPUTE_FRAMES with ClassReader.EXPAND_FRAMES and mv.visitMaxs(-1, -1);
  3. ClassWriter.COMPUTE_FRAMES with ClassReader.SKIP_FRAMES and mv.visitMaxs(maxStack, maxLocals);
  4. ClassWriter.COMPUTE_FRAMES with ClassReader.SKIP_FRAMES and mv.visitMaxs(-1, -1);

Edit #3. Here is my Advice adapter code

public class PojoMethodAdviceAdapter extends AdviceAdapter  {
private String methodName;
private String className;
private String description;
private boolean excludeCheckFlag = false;
private int okFlag =  newLocal(Type.getType("Z")); //newLocal(Type.BOOLEAN_TYPE); 
private int classFileVersion;

Label startFinally = new Label();

private static Hashtable excludeMethods = new  Hashtable();
private static final String yesString = "Yes";
private boolean isValid;

static{
    excludeMethods.put("<clinit>", yesString);
    excludeMethods.put("<init>", yesString);
}

public PojoMethodAdviceAdapter(int access , MethodVisitor mv , String methodName, String description, String className, int classFileVersion){
    super(Opcodes.ASM5 , mv, access, methodName, description);
    this.className = className;
    this.methodName = methodName;
    this.description = description;
    this.excludeCheckFlag = true;
    this.isValid = true;
    this.classFileVersion = classFileVersion;

    String yesStr = (String)excludeMethods.get(this.methodName);
    if(yesStr!=null && yesStr.equals(yesString))
        isValid = false;
    if(this.methodName.indexOf("$") > 0)
        isValid = false;
    if(isValid){
        System.out.println(" [POJO MethodAdviceAdapter] :"+className+" \t "+methodName +" \t  "+description);
    }
}

public void visitCode() {
    super.visitCode(); 
    mv.visitLabel(startFinally);
}

protected void onMethodEnter(){
    if(isValid) {
        mv.visitInsn(Opcodes.ICONST_0);
        mv.visitVarInsn(ISTORE, okFlag);

        mv.visitLdcInsn(className);
        mv.visitLdcInsn(methodName);
        mv.visitLdcInsn(description);
        mv.visitMethodInsn(Opcodes.INVOKESTATIC, "com/mini/agent/trace/RootTracer", "pojoMethodBegin", "(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)Z", false);
        mv.visitVarInsn(ISTORE, okFlag);
    }
}

protected void onMethodExit(int opcode){
    if(opcode!=ATHROW) {
        onFinally(opcode);
    }
}

public void visitMaxs(int maxStack, int maxLocals){
    Label endFinally = new Label();
    mv.visitTryCatchBlock(startFinally, endFinally, endFinally, null);
    mv.visitLabel(endFinally);
    onFinally(ATHROW);
    mv.visitInsn(ATHROW);
    if(classFileVersion <= 50){
        mv.visitMaxs(maxStack, maxLocals);
    }
    else{
        mv.visitMaxs(0, 0);
    }
}

private void onFinally(int opcode){
    if(isValid){
        if(opcode == ATHROW){
            mv.visitInsn(Opcodes.DUP);
            mv.visitLdcInsn(className);
            mv.visitLdcInsn(methodName);
            mv.visitLdcInsn(description);
            mv.visitVarInsn(ILOAD, okFlag);
            mv.visitMethodInsn(Opcodes.INVOKESTATIC, "com/mini/agent/trace/RootTracer", "recordPOJOException", "(Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Z)V", false);
        }

        mv.visitLdcInsn(className);
        mv.visitLdcInsn(methodName);
        mv.visitLdcInsn(description);
        mv.visitVarInsn(ILOAD, okFlag);
        mv.visitLdcInsn(opcode);
        mv.visitMethodInsn(Opcodes.INVOKESTATIC, "com/mini/agent/trace/RootTracer", "pojoMethodEnd", "(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;ZI)V", false);
    }
}

}

Try using the TraceClassVisitor to see where it is getting messed up. In my experience this happens when a Label is written incorrectly, forcing it to write jsr/ret instructions (the JVM should simply reject the class in that case though along with asm crashing when calculating frames), and most often, forgetting to call visitMaxs in the methodVisitor before calling visitEnd. In my code I'm using 

visitMaxs(mv.getMaxLocals(),mv.getMaxLocals());

I don't remember what my reasoning for doing that was but my ClassWriter works when I do, but I hope this helps.
