jsr_w † c9 1100 1001 4: branchbyte1, branchbyte2, branchbyte3, branchbyte4 → address jump to subroutine at branchoffset (signed int constructed from unsigned bytes branchbyte1 << 24 | branchbyte2 << 16 | branchbyte3 << 8 | branchbyte4) and place the return address on the stack l2d 8a 1000 1010 value → result convert a long to a double l2f 89
JSR calls a subroutine. A group of six bits specifies the addressing mode. The JSR instruction can save any register on the stack and load that register with the return address. Programs that do not need this feature specify PC as the register (JSR PC, address) and the routine returns using RTS PC.
The trampoline is a small piece of code which is constructed on the fly on the stack when the address of a nested function is taken. The trampoline sets up the static link pointer, which allows the nested function to access local variables of the enclosing function. The function pointer is then simply the address of the trampoline.
For example, in MACRO-11, the assembly language of the PDP-11 family of minicomputers, the "classic" coroutine switch is effected by the instruction "JSR PC,@(SP)+", which jumps to the address popped from the stack and pushes the current (i.e that of the next) instruction address onto the stack.
In a Wheeler subroutine, this address was normally set to a dummy number, say 0. To call the routine, the address of the caller would be placed in the accumulator and then the code would jump to the starting point of the routine. The first instructions in the routine would calculate the return address based on the value in the accumulator ...
An indirect branch (also known as a computed jump, indirect jump and register-indirect jump) is a type of program control instruction present in some machine language instruction sets. Rather than specifying the address of the next instruction to execute , as in a direct branch , the argument specifies where the address is located.
An example is the Java Portlet Specification. A Java portlet resembles a Java Servlet, but produces fragments rather than complete documents, and is not bound by a URL. A Java Portlet Specification (JSR) defines a contract between portlets and the portlet container. JSRs provides a convenient programming model for Java portlet developers.
Dynamic web page: example of server-side scripting (PHP and MySQL). A dynamic web page is a web page constructed at runtime (during software execution), as opposed to a static web page, delivered as it is stored. A server-side dynamic web page is a web page whose construction is controlled by an application server processing server-side scripts ...
