Annotation Type HostCompilerDirectives.BytecodeInterpreterSwitchBoundary

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value={METHOD,CONSTRUCTOR})
public static @interface HostCompilerDirectives.BytecodeInterpreterSwitchBoundary

Marks a method that is called from a Truffle interpreter, but is not called frequently and is not important for interpreter performance.

This annotation is used to annotate methods that are called from a bytecode interpreter, but should generally not be inlined into the body of the bytecode interpreter. Language implementers are advised to inspect the IR of the interpreter when using this.

Since:

21.0
