  3. Managed Runtime Systems CC-BY https://Foivos.Zakkak.net 3 Class Loading 1) Verification

    2) Preparation of JVM internal data structures 3) Resolution of references (might load other classes) 4) Initialization

    (Size is implementation-dependent) ▪ Primitive – 8, 16, 32, or 64-bit Integer (byte, short, int, long, boolean, char) – 32 or 64-bit IEEE 754 floating-point (float, double)
  7. Managed Runtime Systems CC-BY https://Foivos.Zakkak.net 7 Field Descriptors Abbreviation Type

    Example B byte C char D double F float I int J long L ClassName; reference Ljava/lang/String; S short Z boolean [ array [I [[[D [Ljava/lang/Object;
