## org.apache.bcel.generic
Class SWITCH

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.bcel.generic.SWITCH

All Implemented Interfaces:
  CompoundInstruction

    public final class SWITCH

extends Object
implements CompoundInstruction

SWITCH - Branch depending on int value, generates either LOOKUPSWITCH or TABLESWITCH instruction, depending on whether the match values (int[]) can be sorted with no gaps between the numbers.

Constructor Detail

### SWITCH

    public SWITCH(int[] match,
                  InstructionHandle[] targets,
                  InstructionHandle target,
                  int max_gap)

  Template for switch() constructs. If the match array can be sorted in ascending order with gaps no larger than max_gap between the numbers, a TABLESWITCH instruction is generated, and a LOOKUPSWITCH otherwise. The former may be more efficient, but needs more space. Note, that the key array always will be sorted, though we leave the original arrays unaltered.

  Parameters:
    `match` - array of match values (case 2: ... case 7: ..., etc.)
    `targets` - the instructions to be branched to for each case
    `target` - the default target
    `max_gap` - maximum gap that may between case branches

### SWITCH

    public SWITCH(int[] match,
                  InstructionHandle[] targets,
                  InstructionHandle target)
