Class ConstantPoolGen

java.lang.Object

org.apache.bcel.generic.ConstantPoolGen

public class ConstantPoolGen
extends java.lang.Object

This class is used to build up a constant pool. The user adds constants via `addXXX' methods, `addString', `addClass', etc.. These methods return an index into the constant pool. Finally, `getFinalConstantPool()' returns the constant pool built up. Intermediate versions of the constant pool can be obtained with `getConstantPool()'. A constant pool has capacity for Constants.MAX_SHORT entries. Note that the first (0) is used by the JVM and that Double and Long constants need two slots.
