Class AstAssertInstruction

java.lang.Object
com.ibm.wala.ssa.SSAInstruction
com.ibm.wala.cast.ir.ssa.AstAssertInstruction

public class AstAssertInstruction extends SSAInstruction
An assert statement, as found in a variety of languages. It has a use which is the value being asserted to be true. Additionally, there is flag which denotes whether the assertion is from a specification (the usual case) or is an assertion introduced by "compilation" of whatever sort (e.g. to add assertions regarding loop conditions needed by bounded model checking).

  • Method Details

    • getNumberOfUses

      public int getNumberOfUses()
      Overrides:
      getNumberOfUses in class SSAInstruction
    • getUse

      public int getUse(int i)
      Overrides:
      getUse in class SSAInstruction
      Returns:
      value number representing the jth use in this instruction. -1 means TOP (i.e., the value doesn't matter)
    • copyForSSA

      public SSAInstruction copyForSSA(SSAInstructionFactory insts, int[] defs, int[] uses)
      Description copied from class: SSAInstruction
      This method is meant to be used during SSA conversion for an IR that is not in SSA form. It creates a new SSAInstruction of the same type as the receiver, with a combination of the receiver's uses and defs and those from the method parameters.

      In particular, if the 'defs' parameter is null, then the new instruction has the same defs as the receiver. If 'defs' is not null, it must be an array with a size equal to the number of defs that the receiver instruction has. In this case, the new instruction has defs taken from the array. The uses of the new instruction work in the same way with the 'uses' parameter.

      Note that this only applies to CAst-based IR translation, since Java bytecode-based IR generation uses a different SSA construction mechanism.

    • visit

      public void visit(SSAInstruction.IVisitor v)
      Description copied from class: SSAInstruction

      Description copied from class: SSAInstruction
      This method should never return null.
      Overrides:
      getExceptionTypes in class SSAInstruction
      Returns:
      the set of exception types that an instruction might throw ... disregarding athrows and invokes.
