ICodeChecker

class ICodeChecker extends AnyRef

This class performs a set of checks similar to what the bytecode verifier does. For each basic block, it checks that:

- for primitive operations: the type and numer of operands match the type of the operation

- for method calls: the method exists in the type of the receiver and the number and type of arguments match the declared type of the method.

- for object creation: the constructor can be called.

- for load/stores: the field/local/param exists and the type of the value matches that of the target.

For a control flow graph it checks that type stacks at entry to each basic block 'agree':

To do

Iulian says: I think there's some outdated logic in the checker. The issue with exception handlers being special for least upper bounds pointed out some refactoring in the lattice class. Maybe a worthwhile refactoring would be to make the checker use the DataFlowAnalysis class, and use the lattice trait. In the implementation of LUB, there's a flag telling if one of the successors is 'exceptional'. The inliner is using this mechanism.

    Apply the meet operator of the stack lattice on bl's predecessors. :-). Compute the input to bl by checking that all stacks have the same length, and taking the lub of types at the same positions.
