parents:
diff changeset
28 that the contained address is "special" and is updated under the
a61af66fc99e Initial load

parents:
diff changeset
29 hood by the VM. The purpose is to support implementation of
a61af66fc99e Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
30 reflection on the current VM with these interfaces; if the Java
a61af66fc99e Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
31 code implementing parts of the VM requires proxies for objects in
a61af66fc99e Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
32 the heap, it must be the case that those proxies are updated if GC
a61af66fc99e Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
33 occurs. This is the level at which this updating is handled. The
a61af66fc99e Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
34 VM (and specifically the GC code) must have intimate knowledge of
a61af66fc99e Initial load

35 the VM-specific implementation of this interface. </P>

diff changeset
38 workable to handle the automatic updating of these handles.

39 If the debugger allows the VM to resume running, it will have to
a61af66fc99e Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
40 look up once again any object references via the path they were
a61af66fc99e Initial load
