Class InstructionList

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.aspectj.apache.bcel.generic.InstructionList
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable

public class InstructionList
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

This class is a container for a list of Instruction objects. Instructions can be appended, inserted, moved, deleted, etc.. Instructions are being wrapped into InstructionHandles objects that are returned upon append/insert operations. They give the user (read only) access to the list structure, such that it can be traversed and manipulated in a controlled way. A list is finally dumped to a byte code array with getByteCode.
