DISCLAIMER: These notes are from the defunct k8 project which precedes SquirrelJME. The notes for SquirrelJME start on 2016/02/26! The k8 project was effectively a Java SE 8 operating system and as such all of the notes are in the context of that scope. That project is no longer my goal as SquirrelJME is the spiritual successor to it.

The code is getting there but I need sleep now.

When it comes to the Java loader, the only thing I have left is handling the chunk of byte code used by methods.
12:06
My splitting up of everything before is working out quite well currently.

So far with this new KBF code, the only real stuff I had to change is the Java loader. The other things are rather trivial in usage. Although I will have to update the Java byte code decompiler to adjust for the changes, but that is mostly constant pool and a few invokes.

The code using the KBF has pretty much be fixed so that it compiles again. Now I will soon have to write the KBF creation and entry code that all of it uses.
13:32
Now I just have to write the Mutable KBF related code, but first I should eat breakfast.
14:28
Class recompiling could either get targetted into a KBF or a fresh one. Although stacking KBFs will cost lots of memory.
18:24
I thought about making everything thread safe, but I believe the best thing to do would be to just have entries not be thread safe. If they were thread safe then they would require either a lock or a bunch of Atomic objects.

The slow thing though is that a full rebuild is required when I change the base KBF code or its generators. It takes two minutes to run from a test.

KBFArray using boxed names for the sub-types makes it very cumbersome to use, so for simplication I will instead just prefix the array types with Of. Doing that will far simplify things.
