Class Field

All Implemented Interfaces:
Cloneable, Node

public final class Field extends FieldOrMethod
This class represents the field info structure, i.e., the representation for a variable in the class. See JVM specification for details.
  • Constructor Details

    • Field

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

      public Field(int access_flags, int name_index, int signature_index, Attribute[] attributes, ConstantPool constant_pool)
      Parameters:
      access_flags - Access rights of field
      name_index - Points to field name in constant pool
      signature_index - Points to encoded signature
      attributes - Collection of attributes
      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.
      Parameters:
      v - Visitor object
    • getConstantValue

      public ConstantValue getConstantValue()
      Returns:
      constant value associated with this field (may be null)
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Return string representation close to declaration format, `public static final short MAX = 100', e.g..
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
      Returns:
      String representation of field, including the signature.
    • copy

      public Field copy(ConstantPool _constant_pool)
      Returns:
      deep copy of this field
    • getType

      public Type getType()
      Returns:
      type of field
    • getComparator

      public static BCELComparator getComparator()
      Returns:
      Comparison strategy object
    • setComparator

      public static void setComparator(BCELComparator comparator)
      Parameters:
      comparator - Comparison strategy object
    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object obj)
      Return value as defined by given BCELComparator strategy. By default two Field objects are said to be equal when their names and signatures are equal.
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
      See Also:
    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Return value as defined by given BCELComparator strategy. By default return the hashcode of the field's name XOR signature.
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
