[External] : how does one get value of ConstantValueAttribute?

[Chen Liang]

Hi Mark,
I don't understand your question.  Nowhere in any document mentions there's a "const" in ConstantValueAttribute.  Its Javadoc is available here:
https://download.java.net/java/early_access/jdk24/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/classfile/attribute/ConstantValueAttribute.html
So once you get a ConstantValueAttribute from a field, you can check its constant() accessor, and pattern match to check if it is an IntegerEntry/StringEntry etc.

Regards,
Chen Liang

ConstantValueAttribute:const() is not public.  The documentation implies it is.  How do you get the value?



Thanks,

Mark
