maTe Virtual Machine Native Method Indices

Methods of predefined types in maTe are implemented natively and invoked via the invokenative instruction. This instruction takes a native method index as an operand. These indices are static, determined at the the time the VM is constructed.

The following provides the mapping of native methods to indices. The methods are listed using their "munged" names. The munged name consists of the class name, followed by the method name, followed by the types of the parameters. Dollar signs separate the components of the name.

• index 00: Object_constructor
• index 01: Object$equals$Object
• index 02: Object$hashCode
• index 03: Object$toString
• index 04: Integer_constructor
• index 05: Integer_constructor$Integer
• index 06: Integer$add$Integer
• index 07: Integer$subtract$Integer
• index 08: Integer$multiply$Integer
• index 09: Integer$divide$Integer
• index 10: Integer$greaterThan$Integer
• index 11: Integer$lessThan$Integer
• index 12: Integer$not
• index 13: Integer$minus
• index 14: Integer$operator+$Integer
• index 15: Integer$operator-$Integer
• index 16: Integer$operator*$Integer
• index 17: Integer$operator/$Integer
• index 18: Integer$operator>$Integer
• index 19: Integer$operator<$Integer
• index 20: Integer$operator!
• index 21: Integer$operator-
• index 22: Integer$equals$Object
• index 23: Integer$hashCode
• index 24: Integer$toString
• index 25: String_constructor$String
