Constructor Detail

InvokeInstruction

protected InvokeInstruction(short opcode,
                            int index)

Parameters:

index - to constant pool

Method Detail

toString

public java.lang.String toString(ConstantPool cp)

Overrides:

toString in class CPInstruction

Returns:

mnemonic for instruction with symbolic references resolved

consumeStack

public int consumeStack(ConstantPoolGen cpg)

Also works for instructions whose stack effect depends on the constant pool entry they reference.

Specified by:

consumeStack in interface StackConsumer

Overrides:

consumeStack in class Instruction

Returns:

Number of words consumed from stack by this instruction

produceStack

public int produceStack(ConstantPoolGen cpg)

Also works for instructions whose stack effect depends on the constant pool entry they reference.

Specified by:

produceStack in interface StackProducer

Overrides:

produceStack in class Instruction

Returns:

Number of words produced onto stack by this instruction

getType

public Type getType(ConstantPoolGen cpg)

Description copied from interface: LoadClass

Returns the type associated with this instruction. LoadClass instances are always typed, but this type does not always refer to the type of the class or interface that it possibly forces to load. For example, GETFIELD would return the type of the field and not the type of the class where the field is defined. If no class is forced to be loaded, null is returned. An example for this is an ANEWARRAY instruction that creates an int[][].

Specified by:

getType in interface TypedInstruction

Overrides:

getType in class CPInstruction

Returns:

return type of referenced method.

getMethodName

public java.lang.String getMethodName(ConstantPoolGen cpg)

Returns:

name of referenced method.

getReturnType

public Type getReturnType(ConstantPoolGen cpg)

Returns:

return type of referenced method.

getArgumentTypes

public Type[] getArgumentTypes(ConstantPoolGen cpg)

Returns:

argument types of referenced method.
