Class CodeIterator

javassist.bytecode.CodeIterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Opcode

public class CodeIterator
extends Object
implements Opcode

An iterator for editing a code attribute.

To directly read or edit a bytecode sequence, call byteAt(int), s16bitAt(int), writeByte(int, int), write16bit(int, int), and other methods. For example, if method refers to a CtMethod object, the following code substitutes the NOP instruction for the first instruction of the method:

 CodeAttribute ca = method.getMethodInfo().getCodeAttribute();
 CodeIterator ci = ca.iterator();
 ci.writeByte(Opcode.NOP, 0);

To visit every instruction, call next() on a CodeIterator. It returns the index of the first byte of the next instruction.

If there are multiple CodeIterators referring to the same Code_attribute, then inserting a gap by one CodeIterator will break the other CodeIterator.

This iterator does not provide remove(). If a piece of code in a Code_attribute is unnecessary, it should be overwritten with NOP.

An extra gap may be inserted at the end of the inserted bytecode sequence for adjusting alignment if the code attribute includes LOOKUPSWITCH or TABLESWITCH.

The index at which the byte sequence is actually inserted might be different from pos since some other bytes might be inserted at other positions (e.g. to change GOTO to GOTO_W).

Parameters:

pos - the index at which a byte sequence is inserted.

code - inserted bytecode sequence.

insertGapAt

public CodeIterator.Gap insertGapAt(int pos,

                             throws BadBytecode

Inserts an inclusive or exclusive gap in front of the instruction at the given index pos. Branch offsets and the exception table in the method body are also updated. The inserted gap is filled with NOP. The gap length may be extended to a multiple of 4.

Suppose that the instruction at the given index is at the beginning of a block statement. If the gap is inclusive, then it is included within that block. If the gap is exclusive, then it is excluded from that block.

The index at which the gap is actually inserted might be different from pos since some other bytes might be inserted at other positions (e.g. to change GOTO to GOTO_W). The index is available from the Gap object returned by this method.

Suppose that the gap is inserted at the position of the next instruction that would be returned by next() (not the last instruction returned by the last call to next()). The next instruction returned by next() after the gap is inserted is still the same instruction. It is not NOP at the first byte of the inserted gap.

Parameters:

pos - the index at which a gap is inserted.

length - gap length.

exclusive - true if exclusive, otherwise false.

Returns:

the position and the length of the inserted gap.
