<h2>Purpose</h2>
<p>
Perform the identified object instance field operation with the identified
field, loading or storing into the value register.
</p>
<p>
Note: These opcodes are reasonable candidates for static linking, altering the
field argument to be a more direct offset.

<h2>Constraints</h2>
<ul>
<li>
A and B must be valid register indices in the current stack frame.
</li>
<li>
For the -wide variant, also A+1 must be a valid register index in the
current stack frame.
</li>
<li>
Register vB must contain an object reference.
</li>
<li>
C must be a valid index into the field reference pool.
</li>
<li>
The field must be an instance field. The type of the field denoted by C must
match the variant of the instruction.
</li>
<li>
For the -object variant, the instance referenced by register vA must be
assignment-compatible to the type of the field.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Behavior</h2>
<ul>
<li>
For all but the -wide variant, the value of register vA is move into the
field, that is, <object>.<field>'=vA.
</li>
<li>
For the -wide variant, the registers vA and v(A+1) are moved into the
field as follows:
<ul>
<li>
<object>.<field>' = vA << 0x20 | v(A+1)
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Exceptions</h2>
<ul>
<li>
NullPointerException if vB=null.
</li>
<li>
IllegalAccessException if <object>.<field> is not visible from
the current context according to the usual visibility and access rules of
the Java programming language, or final.
</li>
</ul>
