Interface FloatEntry

All Superinterfaces:

AnnotationConstantValueEntry, ConstantValueEntry, LoadableConstantEntry, PoolEntry

public sealed interface FloatEntry
extends AnnotationConstantValueEntry, ConstantValueEntry

Models a CONSTANT_Float_info structure, or a float constant, in the constant pool of a class file.

The use of a FloatEntry is modeled by a float. Conversions are through ConstantPoolBuilder.floatEntry(float) and floatValue(). In the conversions, all NaN values of the float may or may not be collapsed into a single "canonical" NaN value.

4.4.4 The CONSTANT_Integer_info and CONSTANT_Float_info Structures

Method Details

floatValue

float floatValue()

Returns the float value.

Returns:

the float value

• ConstantPoolBuilder.floatEntry(float)

typeKind

default TypeKind typeKind()

Description copied from interface: LoadableConstantEntry

Returns the data type of this constant.

If the data type is of category 2, this constant must be loaded with ldc2_w; otherwise, the data type is of category 1, and this constant must be loaded with ldc or ldc_w.

Specified by:

typeKind in interface LoadableConstantEntry

Returns:

the data type of this constant
