.TH B::Asmdata 3 "2001-09-21" "perl v5.8.8" "Perl Programmers Reference Guide"
B::Asmdata \- Autogenerated data about Perl ops, used to generate bytecode
\& use B::Asmdata qw(%insn_data @insn_name @optype @specialsv_name);
Provides information about Perl ops in order to generate bytecode via
a bunch of exported variables. Its mostly used by B::Assembler and
\& my($bytecode_num, $put_sub, $get_meth) = @$insn_data{$op_name};
For a given \f(CW$op_name\fR (for example, 'cop_label', 'sv_flags', etc...)
you get an array ref containing the bytecode number of the op, a
reference to the subroutine used to '\s-1PUT\s0', and the name of the method
\& my $op_name = $insn_name[$bytecode_num];
A simple mapping of the bytecode number to the name of the op.
Suitable for using with \f(CW%insn_data\fR like so:
\& my $op_info = $insn_data{$insn_name[$bytecode_num]};
\& my $op_type = $optype[$op_type_num];
A simple mapping of the op type number to its type (like '\s-1COP\s0' or '\s-1BINOP\s0').
.IX Item "@specialsv_name"
\& my $sv_name = $specialsv_name[$sv_index];
Certain \s-1SV\s0 types are considered 'special'. They're represented by
B::SPECIAL and are referred to by a number from the specialsv_list.
This array maps that number back to the name of the \s-1SV\s0 (like 'Nullsv'
