Method Summary

Modifier and Type Method Description
Label target()
The label right before the Instruction corresponding to the cast expression, the new expression, the explicit constructor invocation statement, the method invocation expression, or the method reference expression.
int typeArgumentIndex()

Method Details

target

Label target()
The label right before the Instruction corresponding to the cast expression, the new expression, the explicit constructor invocation statement, the method invocation expression, or the method reference expression.
Returns:
the label right before the instruction

typeArgumentIndex

int typeArgumentIndex()
For a cast expression, the value of the type_argument_index item specifies which type in the cast operator is annotated. A type_argument_index value of 0 specifies the first (or only) type in the cast operator. The possibility of more than one type in a cast expression arises from a cast to an intersection type. For an explicit type argument list, the value of the type_argument_index item specifies which type argument is annotated. A type_argument_index value of 0 specifies the first type argument.
Returns:
the index into the type arguments
