  56. * Wrapper class for `compound' operations, virtual instructions that
  57. * don't exist as byte code, but give a useful meaning. For example,
  58. * the (virtual) PUSH instruction takes an arbitray argument and produces the
  59. * appropiate code at dump time (ICONST, LDC, BIPUSH, ...). Also you can use the
  60. * SWITCH instruction as a useful template for either LOOKUPSWITCH or
  61. * TABLESWITCH.
  62. *
  63. * The interface provides the possibilty for the user to write
  64. * `templates' or `macros' for such reuseable code patterns.
