AllocationSite (API Reference for wala 1.3.9)

java.lang.Object
- com.ibm.wala.ipa.callgraph.propagation.AllocationSite

All Implemented Interfaces:

ContextItem, InstanceKey
```
public class AllocationSite
extends Object
implements InstanceKey
```
An InstanceKey which represents a NewSiteReference in some IMethod. Note that this differs from AllocationSiteInNode, which represents an allocation in a CGNode that may carry some Context. This type is useful for a context-insensitive heap abstraction.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)`
`IClass`	`getConcreteType()`	For now, we assert that each InstanceKey represents a set of classes which are all of the same concrete type (modulo the fact that all arrays of references are considered concrete type []Object;)
`Iterator<Pair<CGNode,NewSiteReference>>`	`getCreationSites(CallGraph CG)`	Get the creation sites of `this`, i.e., the statements that may allocate objects represented by `this`.
`IMethod`	`getMethod()`
`NewSiteReference`	`getSite()`
`int`	`hashCode()`
`String`	`toString()`

public Iterator<Pair<CGNode,NewSiteReference>> getCreationSites(CallGraph CG)
```
    Description copied from interface: InstanceKey
    
    Get the creation sites of this, i.e., the statements that may allocate objects represented by this. A creation site is a pair (n,s), where n is the containing CGNode in the given CallGraph CG and s is the allocating NewSiteReference.
