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.

Using a base structure to pass data back and forth for operations simplifies things and reduces the allocation costs as such.

One thing that I must do also is the verification pass, but then I can just use the StackMapTable and not really worry about it. However for older Java code I will need to generate a StackMapTable anyway.

I should add standard optimization enumerations so that way optimizers can be programmatically checked if they support "known" optimization settings. Custom optimizations can also be supported if they are not listed in the standard set at all.

I can cheat with my optimizers and use them for soft float, but then they would not be purely for optimizers. So perhaps they would be better named as a regenerator or a something else. Perhaps something shorter than Regenerator and Optimizer. A short Pass works.
