jef.dna.constantInfo
Interface ConstString

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, ConstantInfo

All Known Implementing Classes:

ConstantString

public interface ConstString
extends ConstantInfo

This interface has to be implemented by those classes representing a CONSTANT_String_info structure. The CONSTANT_String_info structure is used to represent string constants.

Concrete classes implementing this interface have to tag with the @RefersToCpInfo annotation their private fields representing the following information:

1. string_index

Method Detail

getStringIndex

int getStringIndex()

The value of the string_index item must be a valid index into the constant_pool table. The constant_pool entry at that index must be a CONSTANT_Utf8_info The value of the string_index item must be a valid index into the constant_pool table. The constant_pool entry at that index must be a CONSTANT_Utf8_info.

Returns:

int The index of the CONSTANT_Utf8_info structure

setStringIndex

void setStringIndex(int index)

The value of the string_index item must be a valid index into the constant_pool table. The constant_pool entry at that index must be a CONSTANT_Utf8_info The value of the string_index item must be a valid index into the constant_pool table. The constant_pool entry at that index must be a CONSTANT_Utf8_info.

Parameters:

index - The index of the CONSTANT_Utf8_info structure
