+<h1>iget&lt;kind&gt;</h1>
+
+<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.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Details</h2>

+
+<h2>Constraints</h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ A and B must be valid register indices in the current stackframe.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ For the -wide variant, also A+1 must be a valid register index in the
+ current stackframe.
+ </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>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Behavior</h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ The value of the given instance field is read from the given object and
+ moved into the given register vA, that is, vA'=&lt;object&gt;.&lt;field&gt;.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ If v(A-1) is the lower half of a register pair, v(A-1)' becomes undefined.
+ </li>
+ <li>For all but the -wide variant, if v(A+1) is the upper half of a register
+ pair, v(A+1)' becomes undefined.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ For the -wide variant, if v(A+2) is the upper half of a register pair,
+ v(A+2)' becomes undefined.
+ </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Exceptions</h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ NullPointerException if object is null.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ IllegalAccessException if &lt;object&gt;.&lt;field&gt; is not visible from
+ the current context according to the usual visibility and access rules of
+ the Java programming language.
+ </li>
+</ul>
