<field_signature> ::= <field_type>
<field_type> ::= <base_type>|<object_type>|<array_type>
<base_type> ::= B|C|D|F|I|J|S|Z
<object_type> ::= L<fullclassname>;
<array_type> ::= [<field_type>
The meaning of the base types is as follows:
B byte signed byte
C char character
D double double precision IEEE float
F float single precision IEEE float
I int integer
J long long integer
L<fullclassname>; ... an object of the given class
S short signed short
Z boolean true or false
[<field sig> ... array
example signature for a java method 'doctypeDecl' with 3 string params and a return type void
doctypeDecl : (Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V
