svn commit: r376882 - in /db/derby/code/trunk/java/engine/org/apache/derby: iapi/services/classfile/ impl/services/bytecode/

Author: djd
Date: Fri Feb 10 14:33:56 2006
New Revision: 376882

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=376882&view=rev
Log:
DERBY-766 (partial) Add code to the byte code compiler to enable it to
analyze a block of existing generated byte code. Provide utility methods to allow
other methods to be written to walk the byte code. Add an method to find the maximum
stack depth of a piece of java code. 
Add sanity checks to double check the data used (OPCODE_ACTION) to walk the byte code
and compare the calculated max stack depth with the existing generated value.
This is progress towards providing the ability to split generated methods that exceed
the JVM's limit into a number of smaller methods. This will replace the existing mechanisms
which are reactive, non-optimal and only work in a limited number of situations.
