  • Field Details

    • classWriter

      final ClassWriter classWriter
      The ClassWriter to which this SymbolTable belongs. This is only used to get access to ClassWriter.getCommonSuperClass(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) and to serialize custom attributes with Attribute.write(org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter, byte[], int, int, int).

    • sourceClassReader

      private final ClassReader sourceClassReader
      The ClassReader from which this SymbolTable was constructed, or null if it was constructed from scratch.

    • majorVersion

      private int majorVersion
      The major version number of the class to which this symbol table belongs.

    • className

      private String className
      The internal name of the class to which this symbol table belongs.

    • entryCount

      private int entryCount
      The total number of SymbolTable.Entry instances in entries. This includes entries that are accessible (recursively) via SymbolTable.Entry.next.

    • entries

      private SymbolTable.Entry[] entries
      A hash set of all the entries in this SymbolTable (this includes the constant pool entries, the bootstrap method entries and the type table entries). Each SymbolTable.Entry instance is stored at the array index given by its hash code modulo the array size. If several entries must be stored at the same array index, they are linked together via their SymbolTable.Entry.next field. The factory methods of this class make sure that this table does not contain duplicated entries.

    • constantPoolCount

      private int constantPoolCount
      The number of constant pool items in constantPool, plus 1. The first constant pool item has index 1, and long and double items count for two items.

    • constantPool

      private ByteVector constantPool
      The content of the ClassFile's constant_pool JVMS structure corresponding to this SymbolTable. The ClassFile's constant_pool_count field is not included.

    • bootstrapMethodCount

      private int bootstrapMethodCount
      The number of bootstrap methods in bootstrapMethods. Corresponds to the BootstrapMethods_attribute's num_bootstrap_methods field value.

    • bootstrapMethods

      private ByteVector bootstrapMethods
      The content of the BootstrapMethods attribute 'bootstrap_methods' array corresponding to this SymbolTable. Note that the first 6 bytes of the BootstrapMethods_attribute, and its num_bootstrap_methods field, are not included.

    • typeCount

      private int typeCount
      The actual number of elements in typeTable. These elements are stored from index 0 to typeCount (excluded). The other array entries are empty.

    • typeTable

      private SymbolTable.Entry[] typeTable
      An ASM specific type table used to temporarily store internal names that will not necessarily be stored in the constant pool. This type table is used by the control flow and data flow analysis algorithm used to compute stack map frames from scratch. This array stores Symbol.TYPE_TAG, Symbol.UNINITIALIZED_TYPE_TAG,Symbol.FORWARD_UNINITIALIZED_TYPE_TAG and Symbol.MERGED_TYPE_TAG entries. The type symbol at index i has its Symbol.index equal to i (and vice versa).

    • labelCount

      private int labelCount
      The actual number of SymbolTable.LabelEntry in labelTable. These elements are stored from index 0 to labelCount (excluded). The other array entries are empty. These label entries are also stored in the labelEntries hash set.

    • labelTable

      private SymbolTable.LabelEntry[] labelTable
      The labels corresponding to the "forward uninitialized" types in the ASM specific typeTable (see Symbol.FORWARD_UNINITIALIZED_TYPE_TAG). The label entry at index i has its SymbolTable.LabelEntry.index equal to i (and vice versa).

    • labelEntries

      private SymbolTable.LabelEntry[] labelEntries
      A hash set of all the SymbolTable.LabelEntry elements in the labelTable. Each SymbolTable.LabelEntry instance is stored at the array index given by its hash code modulo the array size. If several entries must be stored at the same array index, they are linked together via their SymbolTable.LabelEntry.next field. The getOrAddLabelEntry(Label) method ensures that this table does not contain duplicated entries.

      bytecodeOffset - the bytecode offset of the NEW instruction that created this uninitialized type value.
      Returns:
      the index of a new or already existing type #@link Symbol} with the given value.

    • addForwardUninitializedType

      int addForwardUninitializedType(String value, Label label)
      Adds a "forward uninitialized" type in the type table of this symbol table. Does nothing if the type table already contains a similar type.
      Parameters:
      value - an internal class name.
      label - the label of the NEW instruction that created this uninitialized type value. If the label is resolved, use the addUninitializedType(java.lang.String, int) method instead.
      Returns:
      the index of a new or already existing type Symbol with the given value.

    • addMergedType

      int addMergedType(int typeTableIndex1, int typeTableIndex2)
      Adds a merged type in the type table of this symbol table. Does nothing if the type table already contains a similar type.
      Parameters:
      typeTableIndex1 - a Symbol.TYPE_TAG type, specified by its index in the type table.
      typeTableIndex2 - another Symbol.TYPE_TAG type, specified by its index in the type table.
      Returns:
      the index of a new or already existing Symbol.TYPE_TAG type Symbol, corresponding to the common super class of the given types.

    • addTypeInternal

      private int addTypeInternal(SymbolTable.Entry entry)
      Adds the given type Symbol to typeTable.
      Parameters:
      entry - a Symbol.TYPE_TAG or Symbol.UNINITIALIZED_TYPE_TAG type symbol. The index of this Symbol must be equal to the current value of typeCount.
      Returns:
      the index in typeTable where the given type was added, which is also equal to entry's index by hypothesis.

    • getOrAddLabelEntry

      private SymbolTable.LabelEntry getOrAddLabelEntry(Label label)
      Returns the SymbolTable.LabelEntry corresponding to the given label. Creates a new one if there is no such entry.
      Parameters:
      label - the Label of a NEW instruction which created an uninitialized type, in the case where this NEW instruction is after the <init> constructor call (in bytecode offset order). See Symbol.FORWARD_UNINITIALIZED_TYPE_TAG.
      Returns:
      the SymbolTable.LabelEntry corresponding to label.
