6.35 CompiledMethod
- Defined in namespace Smalltalk
- Category: Language-Implementation
- I represent methods that have been compiled. I can recompile
methods from their source code, I can invoke Emacs to edit the source code
for one of my instances, and I know how to access components of my
instances.
6.35.1 CompiledMethod class: instance creation
- literals: lits numArgs: numArg numTemps: numTemp
- primitive: primIndex bytecodes: bytecodes depth: depth
Answer a full fledged CompiledMethod. Construct the method header from the parameters, and set the literals and bytecodes to the provided ones. Also, the bytecodes are optimized and any embedded CompiledBlocks modified to refer to these literals and to the newly created CompiledMethod.
6.35.2 CompiledMethod class: lean images
- stripSourceCode
- Remove all the references to method source code from the system
6.35.3 CompiledMethod: accessing
- flags
- Private - Answer the optimization flags for the receiver
- methodClass
- Answer the class in which the receiver is installed.
- methodClass: methodClass
- Set the receiver's class instance variable
- numArgs
- Answer the number of arguments for the receiver
- numTemps
- Answer the number of temporaries for the receiver
- primitive
- Answer the primitive called by the receiver
- selector
- Answer the selector through which the method is called
- selector: aSymbol
- Set the selector through which the method is called
- stackDepth
- Answer the number of stack slots needed for the receiver
- withNewMethodClass: class
- Answer either the receiver or a copy of it, with the method class set to class
- withNewMethodClass: class selector: selector
- Answer either the receiver or a copy of it, with the method class set to class
6.35.4 CompiledMethod: basic
- = aMethod
- Answer whether the receiver and aMethod are equal
- hash
- Answer an hash value for the receiver
- methodCategory
- Answer the method category
- methodCategory: aCategory
- Set the method category to the given string
- methodSourceCode
- Answer the method source code (a FileSegment or String or nil)
- methodSourceFile
- Answer the file where the method source code is stored
- methodSourcePos
- Answer the location where the method source code is stored in the methodSourceFile
- methodSourceString
- Answer the method source code as a string
6.35.5 CompiledMethod: printing
- storeOn: aStream
- Print code to create the receiver on aStream
6.35.6 CompiledMethod: saving and loading
- binaryRepresentationObject
- This method is implemented to allow for a PluggableProxy to be used with CompiledMethods. Answer a DirectedMessage which sends #>> to the class object containing the receiver.
