Description of a java "primitive" type (int, float, etc.)

This description is not read from a ".class" file, but rather is manufactured by the VM before execution begins.

Note that instances of primitives are not objects:

Field Detail

name

private final Atom name
The pretty (external) name for this primitive. For example, for a long the name is 'long' and the descriptor is 'J'


stackWords

private final int stackWords
How many slots in the Java Expression Stack does it take to hold a value of this primitive type?


memoryBytes

private final int memoryBytes
How many bytes in memory does it take to hold a value of this primitive type?

Constructor Detail

Primitive

private Primitive(TypeReference tr,
                  Class<?> classForType,
                  Atom name,
                  int stackWords,
                  int memoryBytes)
Constructor

Parameters:
tr - The canonical type reference for this primitive
classForType - The java.lang.Class representation
name - The name for this primitive
stackWords - The stack slots used by this primitive
memoryBytes - The bytes in memory used by this primitive
Method Detail

toString

public String toString()
Name - something like "int".

Overrides:
toString in class Object

createPrimitive

static Primitive createPrimitive(TypeReference tr)
Create an instance of a Primitive

Parameters:
tr - The canonical type reference for this primitive

getTypeDepth

public int getTypeDepth()
get number of superclasses to Object

Specified by:
getTypeDepth in class RVMType
Returns:
0

isAcyclicReference

public boolean isAcyclicReference()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Reference Count GC: Is a reference of this type contained in another object inherently acyclic (without cycles)?

Specified by:
isAcyclicReference in class RVMType
Returns:
true

getDimensionality

public int getDimensionality()
Number of [ in descriptor for arrays; -1 for primitives; 0 for classes

Specified by:
getDimensionality in class RVMType
Returns:
-1;

isResolved

public boolean isResolved()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Resolution status.

If the class/array has been "resolved", then size and offset information is available by which the compiler can generate code to access this class/array's fields/methods via direct loads/stores/calls (rather than generating code to access fields/methods symbolically, via dynamic linking stubs).

Primitives are always treated as "resolved".

Specified by:
isResolved in class RVMType
Returns:
true because primitives are always considered "resolved"

isInstantiated

public boolean isInstantiated()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Instantiation status.

If the class/array has been "instantiated", then all its methods have been compiled and its type information block has been placed in the JTOC.

Primitives are always treated as "instantiated".

Specified by:
isInstantiated in class RVMType
Returns:
true because primitives are always considered "instantiated"

isInitialized

public boolean isInitialized()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Initialization status.

If the class has been "initialized", then its <clinit> method has been executed. Arrays have no <clinit> methods so they become "initialized" immediately upon "instantiation".

Primitives are always treated as "initialized".

Specified by:
isInitialized in class RVMType
Returns:
true because primitives are always considered "initialized"

markAsBootImageClass

public void markAsBootImageClass()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Only intended to be used by the BootImageWriter

Specified by:
markAsBootImageClass in class RVMType

isInBootImage

public boolean isInBootImage()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Is this class part of the virtual machine's boot image?

Specified by:
isInBootImage in class RVMType
Returns:
true because primitives are needed to start Jikes RVM

getThinLockOffset

public Offset getThinLockOffset()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Get the offset in instances of this type assigned to the thin lock word. Offset.max() if instances of this type do not have thin lock words.

Specified by:
getThinLockOffset in class RVMType
Returns:
Offset.max();

isClassType

public boolean isClassType()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Is this is an instance of RVMClass?

Specified by:
isClassType in class RVMType
Returns:
false

isArrayType

public boolean isArrayType()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Is this an instance of RVMArray?

Specified by:
isArrayType in class RVMType
Returns:
false

isPrimitiveType

public boolean isPrimitiveType()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Is this a primitive type?

Specified by:
isPrimitiveType in class RVMType
Returns:
true

isReferenceType

public boolean isReferenceType()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Is this a reference type?

Specified by:
isReferenceType in class RVMType
Returns:
false

isUnboxedType

public boolean isUnboxedType()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Is this an unboxed type?

Specified by:
isUnboxedType in class RVMType
Returns:
false

getStackWords

public int getStackWords()
Stack space requirement in words.

Specified by:
getStackWords in class RVMType

public int getMemoryBytes()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Number of bytes in memory required to represent the type

Specified by:
getMemoryBytes in class RVMType

resolve

public void resolve()
Cause resolution to take place. This is a no-op for primitive types.

Specified by:
resolve in class RVMType
See Also:
isResolved()

allBootImageTypesResolved

public void allBootImageTypesResolved()
Description copied from class: RVMType
This method is only called by the bootimage writer. It is called after RVMType.resolve() has been called on all bootimage types but before RVMType.instantiate() has been called on any bootimage type. This provides a hook to compute various summaries that cannot be computed before types are resolved.

Specified by:
allBootImageTypesResolved in class RVMType

instantiate

public void instantiate()
Cause instantiation to take place. This is a no-op for primitive types.

Specified by:
instantiate in class RVMType
See Also:
isInstantiated()

initialize

public void initialize()
Cause initialization to take place. This is a no-op for primitive types.

Specified by:
initialize in class RVMType
See Also:
isInitialized()

hasFinalizer

public boolean hasFinalizer()
Description copied from class: RVMType
Does this type override java.lang.Object.finalize()?

Specified by:

Runtime type information for this class/array type.

Specified by:
getTypeInformationBlock in class RVMType
