Re: [Jilc-dev] Docs : convertMethod ( not complete )

[Abhaya Agarwal]

then we need to do the stuff that I have proposed. Like if we have a method 
as "Protected" in java then we will have to map that to appropriate access 
modifier in il. Actually this seemed like only exhaustive way to find out any 
and all things we need to do with bytecode in order to produce il code.
Also while doing this, I had the feeling that by emitting il code and again 
assembling it, aren't we undoing a lot. I mean we have the compiled code then 
we should try to directly convert it. We may use conversion to il as a 
intermediate step while developing but in the final thing, I think direct 
conversion will be much more efficient.
what do u say ?
