public interface JavaMethod
extends JavaMember

Represents a method or constructor in a class.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
boolean	equals(Object obj)	Compares the argument to the receiver, and answers true if they represent the same object using a class specific comparison.
Iterator	getBytecodeSections()	Get the set of ImageSections containing the bytecode of this method.
Iterator	getCompiledSections()	Get the set of ImageSections containing the compiled code of this method.

Method Details

getBytecodeSections

Iterator getBytecodeSections()

Get the set of ImageSections containing the bytecode of this method.

Returns:

an iterator over a collection of ImageSections. Each ImageSection contains data (usually bytecodes) used in executing this method in interpreted mode.

The collection may be empty for native methods, or pre-compiled methods.

Typically, the collection will contain no more than one section, but this is not guaranteed.

• ImageSection
• CorruptData

getCompiledSections

Iterator getCompiledSections()

Get the set of ImageSections containing the compiled code of this method.

Returns:

an iterator over a collection of ImageSections. Each ImageSection contains data (usually executable code) used in executing this method in compiled mode.

• ImageSection
• CorruptData

equals

boolean equals(Object obj)

Description copied from class: java.lang.Object

Compares the argument to the receiver, and answers true if they represent the same object using a class specific comparison. The implementation in Object answers true only if the argument is the exact same object as the receiver (==).

Specified by:

equals in interface JavaMember

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj -

Returns:

True if the given object refers to the same Java Method in the image
