Constructor Detail

ASMClass

public ASMClass(String name,
                Map<String,ASMMethod> methods)
Method Detail

toString

public String toString()
Converts the object to a string. The string representation is the string "class" or "interface", followed by a space, and then by the fully qualified name of the class in the format returned by getName. If this Class object represents a primitive type, this method returns the name of the primitive type. If this Class object represents void this method returns "void".

Overrides:
toString in class Object
Returns:
a string representation of this class object.

newInstance

public Object newInstance()
                   throws InstantiationException,
                          IllegalAccessException
Creates a new instance of the class represented by this Class object. The class is instantiated as if by a new expression with an empty argument list. The class is initialized if it has not already been initialized.

Note that this method propagates any exception thrown by the nullary constructor, including a checked exception. Use of this method effectively bypasses the compile-time exception checking that would otherwise be performed by the compiler. The Constructor.newInstance method avoids this problem by wrapping any exception thrown by the constructor in a (checked) InvocationTargetException.

Returns:
a newly allocated instance of the class represented by this object.
Throws:
IllegalAccessException - if the class or its nullary constructor is not accessible.
InstantiationException - if this Class represents an abstract class, an interface, an array class, a primitive type, or void; or if the class has no nullary constructor; or if the instantiation fails for some other reason.
ExceptionInInitializerError - if the initialization provoked by this method fails.
SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:

isInterface

public boolean isInterface()
Determines if the specified Class object represents an interface type.

Returns:
true if this object represents an interface; false otherwise.

isArray

public boolean isArray()
Determines if this Class object represents an array class.

Returns:
true if this object represents an array class; false otherwise.
Since:
JDK1.1

isPrimitive

public boolean isPrimitive()
Determines if the specified Class object represents a primitive type.

There are nine predefined Class objects to represent the eight primitive types and void. These are created by the Java Virtual Machine, and have the same names as the primitive types that they represent, namely boolean, byte, char, short, int, long, float, and double.

These objects may only be accessed via the following public static final variables, and are the only Class objects for which this method returns true.

Returns:
true if and only if this class represents a primitive type
Since:
JDK1.1
See Also:
Boolean.TYPE, Character.TYPE, Byte.TYPE, Short.TYPE, Integer.TYPE, Long.TYPE, Float.TYPE, Double.TYPE, Void.TYPE

getName

public String getName()
Returns the name of the entity (class, interface, array class, primitive type, or void) represented by this Class object, as a String.

If this class object represents a reference type that is not an array type then the binary name of the class is returned, as specified by the Java Language Specification, Second Edition.

If this class object represents a primitive type or void, then the name returned is a String equal to the Java language keyword corresponding to the primitive type or void.

If this class object represents a class of arrays, then the internal form of the name consists of the name of the element type preceded by one or more '[' characters representing the depth of the array nesting. The encoding of element type names is as follows:

Element Type     Encoding
boolean     Z
byte     B
char     C
class or interface     Lclassname;
double     D
float     F
int     I
long     J
short     S

The class or interface name classname is the binary name of the class specified above.

Examples:

 String.class.getName()
     returns "java.lang.String"
 byte.class.getName()
     returns "byte"
 (new Object[3]).getClass().getName()
     returns "[Ljava.lang.Object;"
 (new int[3][4][5][6][7][8][9]).getClass().getName()
     returns "[[[[[[[I"
 

Returns:
the name of the class or interface represented by this object.

getClassLoader

public ClassLoader getClassLoader()
Returns the class loader for the class. Some implementations may use null to represent the bootstrap class loader. This method will return null in such implementations if this class was loaded by the bootstrap class loader.

If a security manager is present, and the caller's class loader is not null and the caller's class loader is not the same as or an ancestor of the class loader for the class whose class loader is requested, then this method calls the security manager's checkPermission method with a RuntimePermission("getClassLoader") permission to ensure it's ok to access the class loader for the class.

If this object represents a primitive type or void, null is returned.

Returns:
the class loader that loaded the class or interface represented by this object.
Throws:
SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPermission method denies access to the class loader for the class.
See Also:
ClassLoader, SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission), RuntimePermission

getSuperclass

public Class getSuperclass()
Returns the Class representing the superclass of the entity (class, interface, primitive type or void) represented by this Class. If this Class represents either the Object class, an interface, a primitive type, or void, then null is returned. If this object represents an array class then the Class object representing the Object class is returned.

Returns:
the superclass of the class represented by this object.

getGenericSuperclass

public Type getGenericSuperclass()
Returns the Type representing the direct superclass of the entity (class, interface, primitive type or void) represented by this Class.

If the superclass is a parameterized type, the Type object returned must accurately reflect the actual type parameters used in the source code. The parameterized type representing the superclass is created if it had not been created before. See the declaration of ParameterizedType for the semantics of the creation process for parameterized types. If this Class represents either the Object class, an interface, a primitive type, or void, then null is returned. If this object represents an array class then the Class object representing the Object class is returned.

Returns:
the superclass of the class represented by this object
Throws:
GenericSignatureFormatError - if the generic class signature does not conform to the format specified in the Java Virtual Machine Specification, 3rd edition
TypeNotPresentException - if the generic superclass refers to a non-existent type declaration
MalformedParameterizedTypeException - if the generic superclass refers to a parameterized type that cannot be instantiated for any reason
Since:
1.5

getPackage

public Package getPackage()
Gets the package for this class. The class loader of this class is used to find the package. If the class was loaded by the bootstrap class loader the set of packages loaded from CLASSPATH is searched to find the package of the class. Null is returned if no package object was created by the class loader of this class.

Packages have attributes for versions and specifications only if the information was defined in the manifests that accompany the classes, and if the class loader created the package instance with the attributes from the manifest.

Returns:
the package of the class, or null if no package information is available from the archive or codebase.

getInterfaces

public Class[] getInterfaces()
Determines the interfaces implemented by the class or interface represented by this object.

If this object represents a class, the return value is an array containing objects representing all interfaces implemented by the class. The order of the interface objects in the array corresponds to the order of the interface names in the implements clause of the declaration of the class represented by this object. For example, given the declaration:

class Shimmer implements FloorWax, DessertTopping { ... }
suppose the value of s is an instance of Shimmer; the value of the expression:
s.getClass().getInterfaces()[0]
is the Class object that represents interface FloorWax; and the value of:
s.getClass().getInterfaces()[1]
is the Class object that represents interface DessertTopping.

If this object represents an interface, the array contains objects representing all interfaces extended by the interface. The order of the interface objects in the array corresponds to the order of the interface names in the extends clause of the declaration of the interface represented by this object.

If this object represents a class or interface that implements no interfaces, the method returns an array of length 0.

If this object represents a primitive type or void, the method returns an array of length 0.

Returns:
an array of interfaces implemented by this class.

getComponentType

public Class getComponentType()
Returns the Class representing the component type of an array. If this class does not represent an array class this method returns null.

Returns:
the Class representing the component type of this class if this class is an array
Since:
JDK1.1
See Also:
Array

getModifiers

public int getModifiers()
Returns the Java language modifiers for this class or interface, encoded in an integer. The modifiers consist of the Java Virtual Machine's constants for public, protected, private, final, static, abstract and interface; they should be decoded using the methods of class Modifier.

If the underlying class is an array class, then its public, private and protected modifiers are the same as those of its component type. If this Class represents a primitive type or void, its public modifier is always true, and its protected and private modifiers are always false. If this object represents an array class, a primitive type or void, then its final modifier is always true and its interface modifier is always false. The values of its other modifiers are not determined by this specification.

The modifier encodings are defined in The Java Virtual Machine Specification, table 4.1.

Returns:
the int representing the modifiers for this class
Since:
JDK1.1
See Also:
Modifier

getDeclaringClass

public Class getDeclaringClass()
If the class or interface represented by this Class object is a member of another class, returns the Class object representing the class in which it was declared. This method returns null if this class or interface is not a member of any other class. If this Class object represents an array class, a primitive type, or void,then this method returns null.

Returns:
the declaring class for this class
Since:
JDK1.1

getClasses

public Class[] getClasses()
Returns an array containing Class objects representing all the public classes and interfaces that are members of the class represented by this Class object. This includes public class and interface members inherited from superclasses and public class and interface members declared by the class. This method returns an array of length 0 if this Class object has no public member classes or interfaces. This method also returns an array of length 0 if this Class object represents a primitive type, an array class, or void.

Returns:
the array of Class objects representing the public members of this class
Throws:
SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:
Since:
JDK1.1

getFields

public Field[] getFields()
                  throws SecurityException
Returns an array containing Field objects reflecting all the accessible public fields of the class or interface represented by this Class object. The elements in the array returned are not sorted and are not in any particular order. This method returns an array of length 0 if the class or interface has no accessible public fields, or if it represents an array class, a primitive type, or void.

Specifically, if this Class object represents a class, this method returns the public fields of this class and of all its superclasses. If this Class object represents an interface, this method returns the fields of this interface and of all its superinterfaces.

The implicit length field for array class is not reflected by this method. User code should use the methods of class Array to manipulate arrays.

See The Java Language Specification, sections 8.2 and 8.3.

Returns:
the array of Field objects representing the public fields
Throws:
SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:
Since:
JDK1.1

getMethods

public ASMMethod[] getMethods()
                       throws SecurityException
Returns an array containing Method objects reflecting all the public member methods of the class or interface represented by this Class object, including those declared by the class or interface and those inherited from superclasses and superinterfaces. Array classes return all the (public) member methods inherited from the Object class. The elements in the array returned are not sorted and are not in any particular order. This method returns an array of length 0 if this Class object represents a class or interface that has no public member methods, or if this Class object represents a primitive type or void.

The class initialization method <clinit> is not included in the returned array. If the class declares multiple public member methods with the same parameter types, they are all included in the returned array.

See The Java Language Specification, sections 8.2 and 8.4.

Returns:
the array of Method objects representing the public methods of this class
Throws:
SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:
Since:
JDK1.1

getConstructors

public Constructor[] getConstructors()
                              throws SecurityException
Returns an array containing Constructor objects reflecting all the public constructors of the class represented by this Class object. An array of length 0 is returned if the class has no public constructors, or if the class is an array class, or if the class reflects a primitive type or void. Note that while this method returns an array of Constructor<T> objects (that is an array of constructors from this class), the return type of this method is Constructor<?>[] and not Constructor<T>[] as might be expected. This less informative return type is necessary since after being returned from this method, the array could be modified to hold Constructor objects for different classes, which would violate the type guarantees of Constructor<T>[].

Returns:
the array of Constructor objects representing the public constructors of this class
Throws:
SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:
Since:
JDK1.1

getField

public Field getField(String name)
               throws NoSuchFieldException,
                      SecurityException
Returns a Field object that reflects the specified public member field of the class or interface represented by this Class object. The name parameter is a String specifying the simple name of the desired field.

The field to be reflected is determined by the algorithm that follows. Let C be the class represented by this object:

  1. If C declares a public field with the name specified, that is the field to be reflected.
  2. If no field was found in step 1 above, this algorithm is applied recursively to each direct superinterface of C. The direct superinterfaces are searched in the order they were declared.
  3. If no field was found in steps 1 and 2 above, and C has a superclass S, then this algorithm is invoked recursively upon S. If C has no superclass, then a NoSuchFieldException is thrown.

See The Java Language Specification, sections 8.2 and 8.3.

Parameters:
name - the field name
Returns:
the Field object of this class specified by name
Throws:
NoSuchFieldException - if a field with the specified name is not found.
NullPointerException - if name is null
SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:
Since:
JDK1.1

getMethod

public Method getMethod(String name,
                        Class... parameterTypes)
                 throws NoSuchMethodException,
                        SecurityException
Returns a Method object that reflects the specified public member method of the class or interface represented by this Class object. The name parameter is a String specifying the simple name of the desired method. The parameterTypes parameter is an array of Class objects that identify the method's formal parameter types, in declared order. If parameterTypes is null, it is treated as if it were an empty array.

If the name is "<init>;"or "<clinit>" a NoSuchMethodException is raised. Otherwise, the method to be reflected is determined by the algorithm that follows. Let C be the class represented by this object:

  1. C is searched for any matching methods. If no matching method is found, the algorithm of step 1 is invoked recursively on the superclass of C.
  2. If no method was found in step 1 above, the superinterfaces of C are searched for a matching method. If any such method is found, it is reflected.
To find a matching method in a class C:  If C declares exactly one public method with the specified name and exactly the same formal parameter types, that is the method reflected. If more than one such method is found in C, and one of these methods has a return type that is more specific than any of the others, that method is reflected; otherwise one of the methods is chosen arbitrarily.

Note that there may be more than one matching method in a class because while the Java language forbids a class to declare multiple methods with the same signature but different return types, the Java virtual machine does not. This increased flexibility in the virtual machine can be used to implement various language features. For example, covariant returns can be implemented with bridge methods; the bridge method and the method being overridden would have the same signature but different return types.

See The Java Language Specification, sections 8.2 and 8.4.

Parameters:
name - the name of the method
parameterTypes - the list of parameters
Returns:
the Method object that matches the specified name and parameterTypes
Throws:
NoSuchMethodException - if a matching method is not found or if the name is "<init>"or "<clinit>".
NullPointerException - if name is null
SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:
Since:
JDK1.1
