laload

laload Stack

Retrieves a long integer from a long integer array and places it on the stack. arrayref is a reference to an array of long integers. index is an int. The arrayref and index are removed from the stack, and the long integer entry at the given index in the array is pushed onto the stack.

Example

; This is like the Java code: ; long x = arr[0]; ; where x is local variable 2 and arr is an array of longs in local variable 1 aload_1 ; load local variable 1 onto the stack iconst_0 ; push the integer 0 onto the stack laload ; retrieve the entry lstore_2 ; store the entry in local variables 2 and 3 Exceptions

NullPointerException - arrayref is null

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - index is < 0 or >= arrayref.length
