jdk7u.jaxp.org.apache.bcel.external.classfile.Unknown

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable, Node

public final class Unknown
extends Attribute

This class represents a reference to an unknown (i.e., application-specific) attribute of a class. It is instantiated from the Attribute.readAttribute() method. Applications that need to read in application-specific attributes should create an AttributeReader implementation and attach it via Attribute.addAttributeReader.

Constructor Detail

Unknown

public Unknown(Unknown c)

Initialize from another object. Note that both objects use the same references (shallow copy). Use clone() for a physical copy.

Unknown

public Unknown(int name_index,
       int length,
       byte[] bytes,
       ConstantPool constant_pool)

Create a non-standard attribute.

Parameters:

name_index - Index in constant pool

length - Content length in bytes

bytes - Attribute contents

constant_pool - Array of constants

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(Visitor v)

Called by objects that are traversing the nodes of the tree implicitely defined by the contents of a Java class. I.e., the hierarchy of methods, fields, attributes, etc. spawns a tree of objects.

Specified by:

accept in interface Node

Specified by:

accept in class Attribute

Parameters:

v - Visitor object

dump

                throws IOException

Dump unknown bytes to file stream.

Overrides:

dump in class Attribute

Parameters:

file - Output file stream

Throws:

IOException

getBytes

public final byte[] getBytes()

Returns:

data bytes.

getName

public final String getName()

Returns:

name of attribute.

setBytes

public final void setBytes(byte[] bytes)

Parameters:

bytes. -

toString

public final String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Attribute

Returns:

String representation.

copy

public Attribute copy(ConstantPool constant_pool)

Specified by:

copy in class Attribute

Returns:

deep copy of this attribute
