Constructor Details

LocalVariableTable

public LocalVariableTable(LocalVariableTable c)

Initialize from another object. Note that both objects use the same references (shallow copy). Use copy() for a physical copy.

LocalVariableTable

public LocalVariableTable(int name_index,
 int length,
 LocalVariable[] local_variable_table,
 ConstantPool constant_pool)

Parameters:

name_index - Index in constant pool to `LocalVariableTable'

length - Content length in bytes

local_variable_table - Table of local variables

constant_pool - Array of constants

Method Details

accept

public void accept(Visitor v)

Called by objects that are traversing the nodes of the tree implicitely defined by the contents of a Java class. I.e., the hierarchy of methods, fields, attributes, etc. spawns a tree of objects.

Specified by:

accept in interface Node

Specified by:

accept in class Attribute

Parameters:

v - Visitor object

dump

public final void dump(DataOutputStream file)
                throws IOException

Dump local variable table attribute to file stream in binary format.

Overrides:

dump in class Attribute

Parameters:

file - Output file stream

Throws:

IOException

getLocalVariableTable

public final LocalVariable[] getLocalVariableTable()

Returns:

Array of local variables of method.

getLocalVariable

public final LocalVariable getLocalVariable(int index)

Deprecated.

since 5.2 because multiple variables can share the same slot, use getLocalVariable(int index, int pc) instead.

Parameters:

index - the variable slot

Returns:

first matching variable using index

getLocalVariable

public final LocalVariable getLocalVariable(int index,
 int pc)

Parameters:

index - the variable slot

pc - the current pc that this variable is alive

Returns:

matching variable using index when variable is used at supplied pc

setLocalVariableTable

public final void setLocalVariableTable(LocalVariable[] local_variable_table)

toString

public final String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Attribute

Returns:

String representation.

copy

public Attribute copy(ConstantPool _constant_pool)

Specified by:

copy in class Attribute

Returns:

deep copy of this attribute

getTableLength

public final int getTableLength()
