public interface JConstantString
extends JLoadableConstant

An JConstantString object represents a CONSTANT_String_info entry of a constant pool.

A CONSTANT_String_info entry is used to represent constant object of the type String. Among its items there is an index into the constant pool : it is a index to a CONSTANT_Utf8_info entry representing the sequence of characters which will initialize a String object.
