abstract class BTypes extends AnyRef

The BTypes component defines The BType class hierarchy. BTypes encapsulate all type information that is required after building the ASM nodes. This includes optimizations, generation of InnerClass attributes and generation of stack map frames.

This representation is immutable and independent of the compiler data structures, hence it can be queried by concurrent threads.

Type Members

  1. final case class ArrayBType(componentType: BType) extends RefBType with Product with Serializable

  2. sealed trait BType extends AnyRef

    A BType is either a primitive type, a ClassBType, an ArrayBType of one of these, or a MethodType referring to BTypes.

  3. final case class ClassBType(internalName: InternalName) extends RefBType with Product with Serializable

    A ClassBType represents a class or interface type.

    A ClassBType represents a class or interface type. The necessary information to build a ClassBType is extracted from compiler symbols and types, see BTypesFromSymbols.

  4. final case class ClassInfo(superClass: Option[ClassBType], interfaces: List[ClassBType], flags: Int, nestedClasses: List[ClassBType], nestedInfo: Option[NestedInfo]) extends Product with Serializable

    The type info for a class.

    The type info for a class. Used for symboltable-independent subtype checks in the backend.

    superClass

    The super class, not defined for class java/lang/Object.

    interfaces

    All transitively implemented interfaces, except for those inherited through the superclass.

    flags

    The java flags, obtained through javaFlags. Used also to derive the flags for InnerClass entries.

    nestedClasses

    Classes nested in this class. Those need to be added to the InnerClass table, see the InnerClass spec summary above.

    nestedInfo

    If this describes a nested class, information for the InnerClass table.

  5. final case class InnerClassEntry(name: String, outerName: String, innerName: String, flags: Int) extends Product with Serializable

    This class holds the data for an entry in the InnerClass table.

    This class holds the data for an entry in the InnerClass table. See the InnerClass summary above in this file.

    There's some overlap with the class NestedInfo, but it's not exactly the same and cleaner to keep separate.

    name

    The internal name of the class.

    outerName

    The internal name of the outer class, may be null.

    innerName

    The simple name of the inner class, may be null.

    flags

    The flags for this class in the InnerClass entry.

  6. final case class MethodBType(argumentTypes: List[BType], returnType: BType) extends BType with Product with Serializable

  7. final case class MethodNameAndType(name: String, methodType: MethodBType) extends Product with Serializable

    Just a named pair, used in CoreBTypes.asmBoxTo/asmUnboxTo.

  8. final case class NestedInfo(enclosingClass: ClassBType, outerName: Option[String], innerName: Option[String], isStaticNestedClass: Boolean) extends Product with Serializable

    Information required to add a class to an InnerClass table.

    Information required to add a class to an InnerClass table. The spec summary above explains what information is required for the InnerClass entry.

    enclosingClass

    The enclosing class, if it is also nested. When adding a class to the InnerClass table, enclosing nested classes are also added.

    outerName

    The outerName field in the InnerClass entry, may be None.

    innerName

    The innerName field, may be None.

    isStaticNestedClass

    True if this is a static nested class (not inner class) (*)

    (*) Note that the STATIC flag in ClassInfo.flags, obtained through javaFlags(classSym), is not correct for the InnerClass entry, see javaFlags. The static flag in the InnerClass describes a source-level property: if the class is in a static context (does not have an outer pointer). This is checked when building the NestedInfo.

Abstract Value Members

  1. abstract val byteCodeRepository: ByteCodeRepository

    Tools for parsing classfiles, used by the inliner.

  2. abstract val coreBTypes: CoreBTypesProxyGlobalIndependent[BTypes.this.type]

  3. abstract def isCompilingPrimitive: Boolean

    True if the current compilation unit is of a primitive class (scala.Boolean et al).

    True if the current compilation unit is of a primitive class (scala.Boolean et al). Used only in assertions. Abstract here because its implementation depends on global.

  4. abstract def recordPerRunCache[T <: Clearable](cache: T): T

Concrete Value Members

  1. final def !=(arg0: Any): Boolean

  2. final def ##(): Int

    Equivalent to x.hashCode except for boxed numeric types and null.

    Equivalent to x.hashCode except for boxed numeric types and null. For numerics, it returns a hash value which is consistent with value equality: if two value type instances compare as true, then ## will produce the same hash value for each of them. For null returns a hashcode where null.hashCode throws a NullPointerException.

    returns

    a hash value consistent with ==

  16. final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0

    Cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    Cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression 1.asInstanceOf[String] will throw a ClassCastException at runtime, while the expression List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]] will not. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested type.

    returns

    the receiver object.

    Definition Classes
    Any
    Exceptions thrown

    ClassCastException if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type T0.

  17. def classBTypeFromClassNode(classNode: ClassNode): ClassBType

    Construct the ClassBType for a parsed classfile.

  18. val classBTypeFromInternalName: Map[InternalName, ClassBType]

    A map from internal names to ClassBTypes.

    A map from internal names to ClassBTypes. Every ClassBType is added to this map on its construction.

    This map is used when computing stack map frames. The asm.ClassWriter invokes the method getCommonSuperClass. In this method we need to obtain the ClassBType for a given internal name. The method assumes that every class type that appears in the bytecode exists in the map.

    Concurrent because stack map frames are computed when in the class writer, which might run on multiple classes concurrently.

  19. def classBTypeFromParsedClassfile(internalName: InternalName): ClassBType

    Parse the classfile for internalName and construct the ClassBType.

  20. def clone(): AnyRef

    Create a copy of the receiver object.

    Create a copy of the receiver object.

    The default implementation of the clone method is platform dependent.

    returns

    a copy of the receiver object.

  25. final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

    Tests whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    Tests whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    The eq method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances of AnyRef, and has three additional properties:

    • It is consistent: for any non-null instances x and y of type AnyRef, multiple invocations of x.eq(y) consistently returns true or consistently returns false.
    • For any non-null instance x of type AnyRef, x.eq(null) and null.eq(x) returns false.
    • null.eq(null) returns true.

    When overriding the equals or hashCode methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (o1 eq o2), they should be equal to each other (o1 == o2) and they should hash to the same value (o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode).

    returns

    true if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; false otherwise.

Therefore the expression 1.isInstanceOf[String] will return false, while the expression List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]] will return true. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the specified type.
