Annotation Type RawFieldAddress

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface RawFieldAddress

Denotes a method as a field address computation of a RawStructure.

Calls to the method are replaced with address arithmetic. The possible signatures are IntType addressOfFieldName([IntType index]);

The return type must be a primitive integer type or a word type. The receiver is the pointer to the RawStructure that is accessed.

The field offset, i.e., the value that is added to the receiver, is a compile time constant.

The optional parameter index denotes an index, i.e., the receiver is treated as an array of the RawStructure. The type must be a primitive integer type or a word type. Address arithmetic is used to scale the index with the size of the struct.
