ldiv

divide a long integer

Jasmin Syntax

     ldiv 

Stack

Before	After
value1-word1	result-word1
value1-word2	result-word2
value2-word1	...
value2-word2
...

Description

Pops the top two two-word long integers from the stack and divides by the top long integer (i.e. computes value2 / value1). The result is rounded to the nearest integer, with rounding going towards 0. The long integer quotient result is pushed back onto the stack.

Exceptions

ArithmeticException - the divisor (value2) is zero.

Bytecode

Type	Description
u1	ldiv opcode = 0x6D (109)

Notes

Because of the two's-complement representation used for negative numbers, dividing Long.MIN_VALUE by -1 produces Long.MIN_VALUE, not Long.MAX_VALUE as you might expect.
