/**
When this attribute reader is added via the static method
Attribute.addAttributeReader, an attribute name is associated with it.
As the class file parser parses attributes, it will call various
AttributeReaders based on the name of the attributes it is
constructing.
@param name_index An index into the constant pool, indexing a
ConstantUtf8 that represents the name of the attribute.
@param length The length of the data contained in the attribute. This
is written into the constant pool and should agree with what the
factory expects the length to be.
@param file This is the data input stream that the factory needs to read
its data from.
@param constant_pool This is the constant pool associated with the
Attribute that we are constructing.
@return The user-defined AttributeReader should take this data and use
it to construct an attribute. In the case of errors, a null can be
