Returns a new interned instance which is identical to this one, except it is indicated as uninitialized and allocated at the given bytecode index. This instance must be an initialized object type.

Parameters

newAt:int

>= 0; the allocation bytecode index

Returns:Type

non-null; an appropriately-constructed instance

Implements java.lang.Comparable.compareTo.

Doc from java.lang.Comparable.compareTo.

Compares this object with the specified object for order. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object.

The implementor must ensure signum(x.compareTo(y)) == -signum(y.compareTo(x)) for all x and y. (This implies that x.compareTo(y) must throw an exception if and only if y.compareTo(x) throws an exception.)

The implementor must also ensure that the relation is transitive: (x.compareTo(y) > 0 && y.compareTo(z) > 0) implies x.compareTo(z) > 0.

Finally, the implementor must ensure that x.compareTo(y)==0 implies that signum(x.compareTo(z)) == signum(y.compareTo(z)), for all z.

Parameters

other:Type

the object to be compared.

Returns:int

a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object.

Overrides java.lang.Object.equals.

Doc from java.lang.Object.equals.

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

• It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
• It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
• It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
• It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
• For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters

other:Object

the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:boolean

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

Annotations

@Override

Gets the type corresponding to an array of this type.

Returns:Type

non-null; the array type

Implements org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getBasicFrameType.

Doc from org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getBasicFrameType.

Gets the basic type corresponding to this instance's frame type. This is equivalent to getFrameType().getBasicType(), and is the same as calling getFrameType() unless this instance is an int-like type, in which case this method returns BT_INT.

Returns:int

the basic frame type; one of the BT_* constants defined by Type

Implements org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getBasicType.

Doc from org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getBasicType.

Gets the basic type corresponding to this instance.

Returns:int

the basic type; one of the BT_* constants defined by Type

Gets the category. Most instances are category 1. long and double are the only category 2 types.

Returns:int

the category

See Also

isCategory1, isCategory2

Gets the name of the class this type corresponds to, in internal form. This method is only valid if this instance is for a normal reference type (that is, a reference type and additionally not a return address).

Returns:String

non-null; the internal-form class name

Gets the component type of this type. This method is only valid on array types.

Returns:Type

non-null; the component type

Gets the descriptor.

Returns:String

non-null; the descriptor

Implements org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getFrameType.

Doc from org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getFrameType.

Gets the frame type corresponding to this type. This method returns this, except if Type#isIntlike on the underlying type returns true but the underlying type is not in fact Type#INT, in which case this method returns an instance whose underlying type is INT.

Returns:Type

non-null; the frame type for this instance

Gets the initialized type corresponding to this instance, but only if this instance is in fact an uninitialized object type.

Returns:Type

non-null; the initialized type

Gets the bytecode index at which this uninitialized type was allocated. This returns Integer.MAX_VALUE if this type is an uninitialized incoming parameter (i.e., the this of an <init> method) or -1 if this type is in fact initialized.

Returns:int

>= -1; the allocation bytecode index

Implements org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getType.

Doc from org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.getType.

Gets the type associated with this instance.

Returns:Type

non-null; the type

Overrides java.lang.Object.hashCode.

Doc from java.lang.Object.hashCode.

Returns a hash code value for this object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by java.util.HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

• Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
• If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
• It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

Returns:int

a hash code value for this object

Annotations

@Override

Returns the unique instance corresponding to the type with the given descriptor. See vmspec-2 sec4.3.2 for details on the field descriptor syntax. This method does not allow "V" (that is, type void) as a valid descriptor.

Parameters

descriptor:String

non-null; the descriptor

Returns:Type

non-null; the corresponding instance

Exceptions

IllegalArgumentException:

thrown if the descriptor has invalid syntax

Returns the unique instance corresponding to the type of the class with the given name. Calling this method is equivalent to calling intern(name) if name begins with "[" and calling intern("L" + name + ";") in all other cases.

Parameters

name:String

non-null; the name of the class whose type is desired

Returns:Type

non-null; the corresponding type

Exceptions

IllegalArgumentException:

thrown if the name has invalid syntax

Returns the unique instance corresponding to the type with the given descriptor, allowing "V" to return the type for void. Other than that one caveat, this method is identical to intern.

Parameters

descriptor:String

non-null; the descriptor

Returns:Type

non-null; the corresponding instance

Exceptions

IllegalArgumentException:

thrown if the descriptor has invalid syntax

Gets whether this type is an array type. If this method returns true, then it is safe to use getComponentType to determine the component type.

Returns:boolean

whether this type is an array type

Gets whether this type is an array type or is a known-null, and hence is compatible with array types.

Returns:boolean

whether this type is an array type

Returns whether or not this is a category 1 type.

Returns:boolean

whether or not this is a category 1 type

getCategory, isCategory2

Returns whether or not this is a category 2 type.

Returns:boolean

whether or not this is a category 2 type

getCategory, isCategory1

Implements org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.isConstant.

Doc from org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.rop.type.TypeBearer.isConstant.

Returns whether this instance represents a constant value.

Returns:boolean

true if this instance represents a constant value and false if not

Gets whether this type is "intlike." An intlike type is one which, when placed on a stack or in a local, is automatically converted to an int.

Returns:boolean

whether this type is "intlike"

Gets whether this type is a primitive type. All types are either primitive or reference types.

Returns:boolean

whether this type is primitive

Gets whether this type is a normal reference type. A normal reference type is a reference type that is not a return address. This method is just convenient shorthand for getBasicType() == Type.BT_OBJECT.

Returns:boolean

whether this type is a normal reference type

Gets whether this type represents an uninitialized instance. An uninitialized instance is what one gets back from the new opcode, and remains uninitialized until a valid constructor is invoked on it.

Returns:boolean

whether this type is "uninitialized"

Implements org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.util.ToHuman.toHuman.

Doc from org.droidparts.dexmaker.dx.util.ToHuman.toHuman.

Return the "human" string form of this instance. This is generally less "debuggy" than toString().

Returns:String

non-null; the human string form

Overrides java.lang.Object.toString.

Doc from java.lang.Object.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object.

Returns:String

a string representation of the object
