| 14 | <h2>Purpose</h2> |
| 15 | |
| 16 | <p> |
| 17 | Jump to a new instruction based on the value in the given register, using a |
| 18 | table of offsets corresponding to each value in a particular integral range, or |
| 19 | fall through to the next instruction if there is no match. |
| 20 | </p> |
| 21 | <p> |
| 22 | Note: The address of the table is guaranteed to be even (that is, 4-byte |
| 23 | aligned). If the code size of the method is otherwise odd, then an extra code |
| 24 | unit is inserted between the main code and the table whose value is the same as |

| 31 | <thead> |
| 32 | <tr> |
| 33 | <th>Op & Format</th> |
| 34 | <th>Mnemonic / Syntax</th> |
| 35 | <th>Arguments</th> |

| 41 | <td>packed-switch vAA, +BBBBBBBB <i>(with supplemental data as |
| 42 | specified below in "<code>packed-switch</code> Format")</i></td> |

| 44 | <code>B:</code> signed "branch" offset to table data (32 bits)</td> |

| 48 | |
| 49 | <h2>Constraints</h2> |
| 50 | |
| 51 | <ul> |
| 52 | <li> |
| 53 | A must be a valid register index in the current stack frame. |
| 54 | </li> |
| 55 | <li> |
| 56 | Let PC be the address of the packed-switch instruction in the code array of |
| 57 | the current method. Then T = PC + B with the following properties: |
| 58 | <ul> |
| 59 | <li> |
| 60 | T must be 4-byte-aligned. |
| 61 | </li |
| 62 | <li> |
| 63 | T must be in the same method. |
| 64 | </li> |
| 65 | <li> |
| 66 | T must point to a packed-switch data table. |
| 67 | </li> |
| 68 | </ul> |
| 69 | </li> |
| 70 | </ul> |
| 71 | |
| 72 | <h2>Behavior</h2> |
| 73 | |
| 74 | <ul> |
| 75 | <li> |
| 76 | The value of vA is used as an index into the given table data. |
| 77 | </li> |
| 78 | <li> |
| 79 | If vA is in the range of the table, that is, if vA >= table.first_key and |
| 80 | vA < first_key + size, then the jump target is determined as follows: |
| 81 | <ul> |
| 82 | <li> |
| 83 | PC' = PC + table.targets[vA - table.firstKey]. |
| 84 | </li> |
| 85 | <li> |
| 86 | Execution resumes at this address. |
| 87 | </li> |
| 88 | </ul> |
| 89 | </li> |
| 90 | <li> |
| 91 | Otherwise execution continues at the instruction following the packed-switch |
| 92 | statement. |
| 93 | </li> |
| 94 | </ul> |
