magic
The magic item supplies the magic number identifying the class file
format; it has the value 0xCAFEBABE.
minor_version, major_version
The values of the minor_version and major_version items are the
minor and major version numbers of this class file.Together, a
major and a minor version number determine the version of the class
file format. If a class file has major version number M and minor
version number m, we denote the version of its class file format as
M.m. Thus, class file format versions may be ordered
lexicographically, for example, 1.5 < 2.0
< 2.1.
A Java virtual machine implementation can support a class file
format of version v if and only if v lies in some contiguous range
Mi.0 v Mj.m. Only Sun can specify what range of versions a Java
virtual machine implementation conforming to a certain release
level of the Java platform may support.
