The signature must be a SHA-1 hash of the whole file contents except magic,
 | 
						|
checksum, and signature.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The file_size must match the actual file size in bytes.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The header_size must have the value 0x70.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The endian_tag must have either the value ENDIAN_CONSTANT or
 | 
						|
REVERSE_ENDIAN_CONSTANT.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each of the link, string_ids, type_ids, proto_ids, field_ids, method_ids, class_defs
 | 
						|
and data sections, the offset and size fields must be either both zero or both
 | 
						|
non-zero. In the latter case, the offset must be four-byte-aligned.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All offset fields in the header except map_off must be four-byte-aligned.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The map_off field must be either zero or point into the data section. In the
 | 
						|
latter case, the data section must exist.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
None of the link, string_ids, type_ids, proto_ids, field_ids, method_ids, class_defs
 | 
						|
and data sections must overlap each other or the header.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If a map exists, then each map entry must have a valid type. Each type may
 | 
						|
appear at most once.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If a map exists, then each map entry must have a nonzero offset and size. The
 | 
						|
offset must point into the corresponding section of the file (i.e. a
 | 
						|
string_id_item must point into the string_ids section) and the explicit or
 | 
						|
implicit size of the item must match the actual contents and size of the
 | 
						|
section.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If a map exists, then the offset of map entry n+1 must be greater or equal to
 | 
						|
the offset of map entry n plus then size of map entry n. This implies
 | 
						|
non-overlapping entries and low-to-high ordering.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The following types of entries must have an offset that is
 | 
						|
four-byte-aligned: string_id_item, type_id_item, proto_id_item, field_id_item,
 | 
						|
method_id_item, class_def_item, type_list, code_item,
 | 
						|
annotations_directory_item.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each string_id_item, the string_data_off field must contain a valid
 | 
						|
reference into the data section. For the referenced string_data_item, the data
 | 
						|
field must contain a valid MUTF-8 string, and the utf16_size must match the
 | 
						|
decoded length of the string.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each type_id_item, the desciptor_idx field must contain a valid reference
 | 
						|
into the string_ids list. The referenced string must be a valid type descriptor.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each proto_id_item, the shorty_idx field must contain a valid reference
 | 
						|
into the string_ids list. The referenced string must be a valid shorty descriptor.
 | 
						|
Also, the return_type_idx field must be a valid index into the type_ids section,
 | 
						|
and the parameters_off field must be either zero or a valid offset pointing
 | 
						|
into the data section. If nonzero, the parameter list must not contain any void
 | 
						|
entries.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each field_id_item, both the class_idx and type_idx fields must be a valid
 | 
						|
 indices into the
 | 
						|
type_ids list. The entry referenced by class_idx must be a non-array reference type.
 | 
						|
In addition, the name_idx field must be a valid reference into the string_ids
 | 
						|
section, and the contents of the referenced entry must conform to the MemberName
 | 
						|
specification.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each method_id_item, the class_idx field must be a valid index into the
 | 
						|
type_ids section, and the
 | 
						|
referenced entry must be a non-array reference type. The proto_id field must
 | 
						|
be a valid reference into the proto_ids list. The name_idx field must be a
 | 
						|
valid reference into the string_ids
 | 
						|
section, and the contents of the referenced entry must conform to the MemberName
 | 
						|
specification.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each class_def_item, ...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each field_id_item, the class_idx field must be a valid index into the
 | 
						|
type_ids list. The referenced entry must be a non-array reference type.

    Static constraints are constraints on individual elements of the bytecode.
