  • Method Details

    • getLocals

      public Local[] getLocals()
      Return all the locals of this method.
    • getLocal

      public Local getLocal(int local)
      Return the local with the given locals index, or null if none.
    • getLocal

      public Local getLocal(String name)
      Return the local with the given name, or null if none. If multiple locals have the given name, which is returned is undefined.
    • getLocals

      public Local[] getLocals(String name)
      Return all locals with the given name, or empty array if none.
    • setLocals

      public void setLocals(Local[] locals)
      Set the locals of this table. This method is useful when importing locals from another method.
    • addLocal

      public Local addLocal(Local local)
      Import a local from another method/class. Note that the program counter and length from the given local is copied directly, and thus will be incorrect unless this method is the same as the one the local is copied from, or the pc and length are reset.
    • addLocal

      public Local addLocal()
      Add a local to this table.
    • newLocal

      protected abstract Local newLocal()
      Create a new element of this table.
    • newLocalArray

      protected abstract Local[] newLocalArray(int size)
      Create a new array.
    • addLocal

      public Local addLocal(String name, String type)
      Add a local to this table.
    • clear

      public void clear()
      Clear all locals from this table.
    • removeLocal

      public boolean removeLocal(int local)
      Removes the local with the given locals index from the table.
      Returns:
      true if a local was removed, false otherwise
    • removeLocal

      public boolean removeLocal(String name)
      Removes the local with the given name from this method.
      Returns:
      true if a local was removed, false otherwise
    • removeLocal

      public boolean removeLocal(Local local)
      Removes a local from this method. After this method, the local will be invalid, and the result of any operations on it is undefined.
      Returns:
      true if a local was removed, false otherwise
    • updateTargets

      public void updateTargets()
      Description copied from interface: InstructionPtr
      Use the byte indexes read from the class file to calculate and set references to the target instruction(s) for this ptr. This method will be called after the byte code has been read in for the first time and before it is written after modification.
      Specified by:
      updateTargets in interface InstructionPtr
    • replaceTarget

      public void replaceTarget(Instruction oldTarget, Instruction newTarget)
      Description copied from interface: InstructionPtr
      Replace the given old, likely invalid, target with a new target. The new target Instruction is guaranteed to be in the same code block as this InstructionPtr.
      Specified by:
      replaceTarget in interface InstructionPtr
    • getCode

      public Code getCode()
      Description copied from interface: InstructionPtr
      Returns the Code block that owns the Instruction(s) this InstructionPtr points to.
      Specified by:
      getCode in interface InstructionPtr
