Class CodeExceptionGen

java.lang.Object

org.apache.bcel.generic.CodeExceptionGen

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable, InstructionTargeter

public final class CodeExceptionGen
extends Object
implements InstructionTargeter, Cloneable

This class represents an exception handler, that is, specifies the region where a handler is active and an instruction where the actual handling is done. pool as parameters. Opposed to the JVM specification the end of the handled region is set to be inclusive, for example all instructions between start and end are protected including the start and end instructions (handles) themselves. The end of the region is automatically mapped to be exclusive when calling getCodeException(), that is, there is no difference semantically.

Constructor Details

CodeExceptionGen

public CodeExceptionGen(InstructionHandle startPc,
 InstructionHandle endPc,
 InstructionHandle handlerPc,
 ObjectType catchType)

Add an exception handler, that is, specify region where a handler is active and an instruction where the actual handling is done.

Parameters:

startPc - Start of handled region (inclusive).

endPc - End of handled region (inclusive).

handlerPc - Where handling is done.

catchType - which exception is handled, null for ANY.

Method Details

clone

public Object clone()

Overrides:

clone in class Object

containsTarget

public boolean containsTarget(InstructionHandle ih)

Description copied from interface: InstructionTargeter

Tests whether this targeter targets the specified instruction handle.

Specified by:

containsTarget in interface InstructionTargeter

Parameters:

ih - the instruction handle to test.

Returns:

true, if ih is target of this handler.

getCatchType

public ObjectType getCatchType()

Gets the type of the Exception to catch, 'null' for ANY.

Returns:

the type of the Exception to catch, 'null' for ANY.

getCodeException

public CodeException getCodeException(ConstantPoolGen cp)

Gets CodeException object. This relies on that the instruction list has already been dumped to byte code or that the 'setPositions' methods has been called for the instruction list.

Parameters:

cp - constant pool.

Returns:

the CodeException object.

getEndPC

public InstructionHandle getEndPC()

Gets the end of handled region (inclusive).

Returns:

end of handled region (inclusive).

getHandlerPC

public InstructionHandle getHandlerPC()

Gets the start of handler.

Returns:

start of handler.

getStartPC

public InstructionHandle getStartPC()

Gets the start of handled region (inclusive).

Returns:

start of handled region (inclusive).

setCatchType

public void setCatchType(ObjectType catchType)

Sets the type of the Exception to catch. Set 'null' for ANY.

Parameters:

catchType - the type of the Exception to catch.

setEndPC

public void setEndPC(InstructionHandle endPc)

Sets end of handler.

Parameters:

endPc - End of handled region (inclusive).

setHandlerPC

public void setHandlerPC(InstructionHandle handlerPc)

Sets handler code.

Parameters:

handlerPc - Start of handler.

setStartPC

public void setStartPC(InstructionHandle startPc)

Sets start of handler.

Parameters:

startPc - Start of handled region (inclusive).

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

updateTarget

public void updateTarget(InstructionHandle oldIh,
 InstructionHandle newIh)

Description copied from interface: InstructionTargeter

Replaces the target of this targeter from this old handle to the new handle.

Specified by:

updateTarget in interface InstructionTargeter

Parameters:

oldIh - old target, either start or end.

newIh - new target.
