    • isCompilable

      public boolean isCompilable()
      A method reference is compilable if it has been resolved to a reflectively accessible method and the child nodes (arguments to the method) are also compilable.
      Overrides:
      isCompilable in class SpelNodeImpl
      Returns:
      true if this node can be compiled to bytecode
    • generateCode

      public void generateCode(MethodVisitor mv, CodeFlow cf)
      Description copied from class: SpelNodeImpl
      Generate the bytecode for this node into the supplied visitor. Context info about the current expression being compiled is available in the codeflow object, e.g. including information about the type of the object currently on the stack.
      Overrides:
      generateCode in class SpelNodeImpl
      Parameters:
      mv - the ASM MethodVisitor into which code should be generated
      cf - a context object with info about what is on the stack
