Class Simulator

java.lang.Object

com.android.dx.cf.code.Simulator

public class Simulator
extends Object

Class which knows how to simulate the effects of executing bytecode.

Note: This class is not thread-safe. If multiple threads need to use a single instance, they must synchronize access explicitly between themselves.

Simulator

public Simulator(Machine machine,
 ConcreteMethod method,
 DexOptions dexOptions)

Constructs an instance.

Parameters:

machine - non-null; machine to use when simulating

method - non-null; method data to use

dexOptions - non-null; options for dex output

Method Details

simulate

public void simulate(ByteBlock bb,
 Frame frame)

Simulates the effect of executing the given basic block. This modifies the passed-in frame to represent the end result.

Parameters:

bb - non-null; the basic block

frame - non-null; frame to operate on

simulate

public int simulate(int offset,
 Frame frame)

Simulates the effect of the instruction at the given offset, by making appropriate calls on the given frame.

Parameters:

offset - offset >= 0; offset of the instruction to simulate

frame - non-null; frame to operate on

Returns:

the length of the instruction, in bytes
