Class Method

java.lang.Object
  extended by gnu.bytecode.Method
All Implemented Interfaces:
AttrContainer

public class Method
extends java.lang.Object
implements AttrContainer

Represents a method in a ClassType.

A Method contain a CodeAttr object; the interface for generating bytecode instructions is primarily in CodeAttr.

All the methods whose name start with compile_ are deprecated, and should not be used; use the methods in CodeAttrinstead.
