/**
 * Runtime code-generation, compilation and bytecode-manipulation utilities.
 *
 * To achieve optimal performance in a dynamic schema environment, Drill
 * includes a complete code generation system for generating type-specific Java
 * code for most of its physical operators. This generated code is used for
 * scalar expression evaluation as well as value transfers between record
 * batches. As a new schema arrives at an operator, the schema change will be
 * detected and prompt runtime code generation. This runtime-generated code will
 * evaluate the expressions needed for the operator to process the incoming
 * data. As the same code will often be run on a number of nodes in the cluster,
 * compiled classes are stored in the distributed cache to avoid the need to re-
 * compile and JIT-optimize the same code on every machine.
