/**
 * The CONSTANT_Utf8_info structure is used to represent constant string values.<P>
 *
 * The bytes of multibyte characters are stored in the class file in big-endian
 * (high byte first) order. There are two differences between this format and the
 * "standard" UTF-8 format. First, the null byte (byte)0 is encoded using the
 * two-byte format rather than the one-byte format, so that Java Virtual Machine
 * UTF-8 strings never have embedded nulls. Second, only the one-byte, two-byte,
 * and three-byte formats are used. The Java Virtual Machine does not recognize
 * the longer UTF-8 formats.
