26 // In order to preserve oops during garbage collection, they should be
27 // allocated and passed around via Handles within the VM. A handle is
28 // simply an extra indirection allocated in a thread local handle area.
29 //
30 // A handle is a ValueObj, so it can be passed around as a value, can
31 // be used as a parameter w/o using &-passing, and can be returned as a
32 // return value.
33 //
34 // oop parameters and return types should be Handles whenever feasible.
35 //
36 // Handles are declared in a straight-forward manner, e.g.
37 //
38 // oop obj = ...;
39 // Handle h1(obj); // allocate new handle
40 // Handle h2(thread, obj); // faster allocation when current thread is known
41 // Handle h3; // declare handle only, no allocation occurs
42 // ...
43 // h3 = h1; // make h3 refer to same indirection as h1
44 // oop obj2 = h2(); // get handle value
45 // h1->print(); // invoking operation on oop
46 //
47 // Handles are specialized for different oop types to provide extra type
48 // information and avoid unnecessary casting. For each oop type xxxOop
49 // there is a corresponding handle called xxxHandle, e.g.
50 //
51 // oop Handle
52 // methodOop methodHandle
53 // instanceOop instanceHandle
54 //
55 // For klassOops, it is often useful to model the Klass hierarchy in order
56 // to get access to the klass_part without casting. For each xxxKlass there
57 // is a corresponding handle called xxxKlassHandle, e.g.
58 //
59 // klassOop Klass KlassHandle
60 // klassOop methodKlass methodKlassHandle
61 // klassOop instanceKlass instanceKlassHandle
