public final class Identifier
extends java.lang.Object
implements Constants

A class to represent identifiers.

An identifier instance is very similar to a String. The difference is that identifier can't be instanciated directly, instead they are looked up in a hash table. This means that identifiers with the same name map to the same identifier object. This makes comparisons of identifiers much faster.

A lot of identifiers are qualified, that is they have '.'s in them. Each qualified identifier is chopped up into the qualifier and the name. The qualifier is cached in the value field.

Unqualified identifiers can have a type. This type is an integer that can be used by a scanner as a token value. This value has to be set using the setType method.

Field Detail

INNERCLASS_PREFIX

public static final char INNERCLASS_PREFIX

A space character, which precedes the first inner class name in a qualified name, and thus marks the qualification as involving inner classes, instead of merely packages.

Ex: java.util.Vector. Enumerator.

Constant Field Values

Method Detail

lookup

public static Identifier lookup(java.lang.String s)

Lookup an identifier.

lookup

public static Identifier lookup(Identifier q,
                Identifier n)

Lookup a qualified identifier.

lookupInner

public static Identifier lookupInner(Identifier c,
                     Identifier n)

Lookup an inner identifier. (Note: n can be idNull.)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Convert to a string.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

isQualified

public boolean isQualified()

Check if the name is qualified (ie: it contains a '.').

getQualifier

public Identifier getQualifier()

Return the qualifier. The null identifier is returned if the name was not qualified. The qualifier does not include any inner part of the name.

getName

public Identifier getName()

Return the unqualified name. In the case of an inner name, the unqualified name will itself contain components.

isInner

public boolean isInner()

Check if the name is inner (ie: it contains a ' ').

getFlatName

public Identifier getFlatName()

Return the class name, without its qualifier, and with any nesting flattened into a new qualfication structure. If the original identifier is inner, the result will be qualified, and can be further decomposed by means of getQualifier and getName.

For example:

 Identifier id = Identifier.lookup("pkg.Foo. Bar");
 id.getName().name      =>  "Foo. Bar"
 id.getFlatName().name  =>  "Foo.Bar"
 

getTopName

public Identifier getTopName()

getHead

public Identifier getHead()

Yet another way to slice qualified identifiers: The head of an identifier is its first qualifier component, and the tail is the rest of them.

getTail

public Identifier getTail()

See Also:

getHead

hasAmbigPrefix

public boolean hasAmbigPrefix()

Determine whether an Identifier has been marked as ambiguous.

addAmbigPrefix

public Identifier addAmbigPrefix()

Add ambigPrefix to `this' to make a new Identifier marked as ambiguous. It is important that this new Identifier not refer to an existing class.

removeAmbigPrefix

public Identifier removeAmbigPrefix()

Remove the ambigPrefix from `this' to get the original identifier.
