/** A JVM class file.
 *
 *  <p>Generic Java classfiles have one additional attribute for classes,
 *  methods and fields:
 *  <pre>
 *   "Signature" (u4 attr-length, u2 signature-index)
 *  </pre>
 *
 *  <p>A signature gives the full Java type of a method or field. When
 *  used as a class attribute, it indicates type parameters, followed
 *  by supertype, followed by all interfaces.
 *  <pre>
 *     methodOrFieldSignature ::= type
 *     classSignature         ::= [ typeparams ] supertype { interfacetype }
 *  </pre>
 *  <p>The type syntax in signatures is extended as follows:
 *  <pre>{@literal
 *     type       ::= ... | classtype | methodtype | typevar
 *     classtype  ::= classsig { '.' classsig }
 *     classig    ::= 'L' name [typeargs] ';'
 *     methodtype ::= [ typeparams ] '(' { type } ')' type
 *     typevar    ::= 'T' name ';'
 *     typeargs   ::= '<' type { type } '>'
 *     typeparams ::= '<' typeparam { typeparam } '>'
 *     typeparam  ::= name ':' type
 *  }</pre>
 *  <p>This class defines constants used in class files as well
 *  as routines to convert between internal ``.'' and external ``/''
 *  separators in class names.
 *
 *  <p>This is NOT part of any supported API.
 *  If you write code that depends on this, you do so at your own risk.
 *  This code and its internal interfaces are subject to change or
 *  deletion without notice.</b> */
