question: public static boolean isCurrentlyFinal ( RVMMethod callee , boolean searchSubclasses ) { RVMClass klass = callee . getDeclaringClass ( ) ; if ( klass . isInterface ( ) ) { return false ; } RVMClass [ ] subClasses = klass . getSubClasses ( ) ; if ( subClasses . length == 0 ) { return true ; } else if ( searchSubclasses ) { Stack < RVMClass > s = new Stack < RVMClass > ( ) ; for ( RVMClass subClass1 : subClasses ) { s . push ( subClass1 ) ; } while ( ! s . isEmpty ( ) ) { RVMClass subClass = s . pop ( ) ; if ( subClass . findDeclaredMethod ( callee . getName ( ) , callee . getDescriptor ( ) ) != null ) { return false ; } subClasses = subClass . getSubClasses ( ) ; for ( RVMClass subClass1 : subClasses ) { s . push ( subClass1 ) ; } } return true ; } else { return false ; } }
target:  Is the method CURRENTLY final (not overridden by any subclass)? <p> Note that this says nothing about whether or not the method will be overridden by future dynamically loaded classes.
