Class ASTStringLiteral

    • Method Detail

      • isTextBlock

        public boolean isTextBlock()
        Returns true if this is a text block (currently Java 13 preview feature).

      • isEmpty

        public boolean isEmpty()
        True if the constant value is empty. Does not necessarily compute the constant value.

      • length

        public int length()
        Length of the constant value in characters.

      • toPrintableString

        public @NonNull String toPrintableString()
        Returns a string where non-printable characters have been escaped using Java-like escape codes (eg \n, \t, \u00a0).

      • acceptVisitor

        protected <P,​R> R acceptVisitor​(JavaVisitor<? super P,​? extends R> visitor,
                                      P data)

      • buildConstValue

        protected @NonNull String buildConstValue()

      • isCompileTimeConstant

        public boolean isCompileTimeConstant()
        Description copied from interface: ASTExpression
        Returns true if this expression is a compile-time constant, and is inlined.
        Specified by:
        isCompileTimeConstant in interface ASTExpression

      • getParenthesisDepth

        public int getParenthesisDepth()
        Description copied from interface: ASTExpression
        Returns the number of parenthesis levels around this expression. If this method returns 0, then no parentheses are present.

        E.g. the expression (a + b) is parsed as an AdditiveExpression whose parenthesisDepth is 1, and in ((a + b)) it's 2.

        This is to avoid the parentheses interfering with analysis. Parentheses already influence parsing by breaking the natural precedence of operators. It would mostly hide false positives to make a ParenthesizedExpr node, because it would make semantically equivalent nodes have a very different representation.

        On the other hand, when a rule explicitly cares about parentheses, then this attribute may be used to find out whether parentheses were mentioned, so no information is lost.

      • getTypeMirror

        public @NonNull JTypeMirror getTypeMirror()
        Description copied from interface: TypeNode
        Returns the compile-time type of this node. For example, for a string literal, returns the type mirror for String, for a method call, returns the return type of the call, etc.

        This method ignores conversions applied to the value of the node because of its context. For example, in 1 + "", the numeric literal will have type int, but it is converted to String by the surrounding concatenation expression. Similarly, in Collections.singletonList(1), the ASTNumericLiteral node has type int, but the type of the method formal is Integer, and boxing is applied at runtime. Possibly, an API will be added to expose this information.

        Specified by:
        getTypeMirror in interface TypeNode
        Returns:
        The type mirror. Never returns null; if the type is unresolved, returns TypeSystem.UNKNOWN.

        public final <P,​R> R acceptVisitor​(AstVisitor<? super P,​? extends R> visitor,
                                         P data)

      • getSymbolTable

        public @NonNull JSymbolTable getSymbolTable()
        Description copied from interface: JavaNode
