I know this debug information is contained in the .class file when compiling with:
javac -g Main.java
and can be observed manually from the LineNumberTable:
section of:
javap -c -constants -private -verbose '$<' > '$@'
What I want is to make javap
display the source in the middle of the bytecode.
Sample input:
public class New {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(new Integer(1));
}
}
Actual javap
output:
0: getstatic #2 // Field java/lang/System.out:Ljava/io/PrintStream;
3: new #3 // class java/lang/Integer
6: dup
7: iconst_1
8: invokespecial #4 // Method java/lang/Integer."<init>":(I)V
11: invokevirtual #5 // Method java/io/PrintStream.println:(Ljava/lang/Object;)V
14: return
LineNumberTable:
line 3: 0
line 4: 14
Desired javap output:
System.out.println(new Integer(1));
0: getstatic #2 // Field java/lang/System.out:Ljava/io/PrintStream;
3: new #3 // class java/lang/Integer
6: dup
7: iconst_1
8: invokespecial #4 // Method java/lang/Integer."<init>":(I)V
11: invokevirtual #5 // Method java/io/PrintStream.println:(Ljava/lang/Object;)V
}
14: return
LineNumberTable:
line 3: 0
line 4: 14
That would make it much easier to interpret javap
output.
Similar but more generic question: How to use javap to see what lines of bytecode correspond to lines in the Java code?
I have tried to:
- create a feature request at: http://bugreport.java.com/submit_intro.do
- send an email to the mailing list:
jdk9-dev@openjdk.java.net
but there was no reply, and my messages don't even appear on those websites. Not a very open project.
