Interface CodeAttribute

All Superinterfaces:
Attribute<CodeAttribute>, AttributedElement, ClassFileElement, CodeModel, CompoundElement<CodeElement>, Iterable<CodeElement>, MethodElement
public sealed interface CodeAttribute extends Attribute<CodeAttribute>, CodeModel
Models the Code attribute (JVMS ), which contains the bytecode of this method.

This attribute only appears on methods, and does not permit multiple instances in a method. It has a data dependency on the constant pool.

This attribute was introduced in the Java Platform version 1.0.2, major version 45.

API Note:
CodeAttribute models properties of a Code attribute read from class files. General class file transformation should process and traverse a CodeModel in the traversal of a MethodModel, to support transformation of Code attributes currently being built.
