# Interface: com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.android.dex.IDexCodeItem This interface represents a Dex `code_item` object. Those objects hold, among other things, the bytecode of a method. It holds the body of a method. They are referenced by [IDexMethodData](IDexMethodData) objects for internal, non\-abstract, non\-native methods. ## Method: getControlFlowGraph - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.android.controlflow.CFG` Description: Returns the CFG for this method. It may be null if the parser did not produce a control flow graph. return: the control flow graph, or null if none was produced ## Method: getDebugInfo - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.android.dex.IDexDebugInfo` Description: Get the debug information for the method. Note: debug metadata can be forged and should not be trusted. return: the debug info object, or null if there is none ## Method: getDexEntryIndex - return type: `int` Description: Retrieve the index of the dex entry that defines this code item. return: an index into [IDexUnit#getDexEntries()](IDexUnit#getDexEntries()) \(of the owner , or \-1 if unknown or not defined ## Method: getDexFileIndex - return type: `int` Description: deprecated: use [#getDexEntryIndex()](#getDexEntryIndex()) return: an index into [IDexUnit#getDexEntries()](IDexUnit#getDexEntries()), or \-1 if unknown or not defined ## Method: getExceptionItems - return type: `java.util.List` Description: Get the exception items for the method. return: the list of exception items ## Method: getGaps - return type: `java.util.Map` Description: Retrieve the gaps in the method's bytecode. The gaps are areas within the bytecode that are not directly used as instruction as pseudo\-instruction's data \(switch or array data\). return: a dictionary of offset \(0\-based\) to the gap bytes ## Method: getInputArgumentCount - return type: `int` Description: Get the number of incoming arguments for the method. return: the number of incoming arguments ## Method: getInstruction - parameter: `index`, type: `int` - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.android.dex.IDalvikInstruction` Description: Get the instruction at the provided index. parameter: index: the zero\-based instruction index return: the instruction ## Method: getInstructionAt - parameter: `offsetInMethod`, type: `int` - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.android.dex.IDalvikInstruction` Description: Get the instruction at the provided byte offset in the method. parameter: offsetInMethod: method's code offset in byte return: an instruction or null ## Method: getInstructions - return type: `java.util.List` Description: Get the list of parsed bytecode instructions, ordered by ascending offset. This method provides the original array of instructions, not a copy. The caller should not try to modify it. return: the list of method instructions ## Method: getInstructionsOffset - return type: `int` Description: Get the Dex file offset where the bytecode for the method starts. return: the bytecode offset in bytes, that is, the absolute entry point of the associated method ## Method: getInstructionsSize - return type: `int` Description: Get the size of the method's bytecode, in bytes. return: the bytecode size in bytes ## Method: getOutputArgumentCount - return type: `int` Description: Get the number of outgoing arguments for the method. return: the number of outgoing arguments ## Method: getParsingErrors - return type: `java.util.List` Description: Retrieve the list of parsing errors, if any. return: a list ## Method: getRegisterCount - return type: `int` Description: Get the number of registers used by the method. return: the number of registers ## Method: hasParsingErrors - return type: `boolean` Description: Determine whether the method's bytecode was successfully parsed. return: true if parsing errors occurred
