  • Method Details

    • getImplementation

      public Expression getImplementation()
      Type checking may assign a more complex implementation to an innocuous-looking expression (like an identifier). Return that implementation, or the original expression itself if there is no special implementation.

      This appears at present to be dead code, and is not called from within javac. Access to the implementation generally occurs within the same class, and thus uses the underlying field directly.

    • getType

      public Type getType()

    • order

      public Expression order()
      Order the expression based on precedence

    • isConstant

      public boolean isConstant()
      Return true if constant, according to JLS 15.27. A constant expression must inline away to a literal constant.

    • getValue

      public Object getValue()
      Return the constant value.

    • equals

      public boolean equals(int i)
      Check if the expression is known to be equal to a given value. Returns false for any expression other than a literal constant, thus should be called only after simplification (inlining) has been performed.

    • equals

      public boolean equals(boolean b)

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Identifier id)

    • equals

      public boolean equals(String s)

    • isNull

      public boolean isNull()
      Check if the expression must be a null reference.

    • isNonNull

      public boolean isNonNull()
      Check if the expression cannot be a null reference.

    • equalsDefault

      public boolean equalsDefault()
      Check if the expression is equal to its default static value

    • fitsType

      public boolean fitsType(Environment env, Context ctx, Type t)
      See if this expression fits in the given type. This is useful because some larger numbers fit into smaller types.

      If it is an "int" constant expression, inline it, if necessary, to examine its numerical value. See JLS 5.2 and 15.24.

    • fitsType

      @Deprecated public boolean fitsType(Environment env, Type t)
      Deprecated.
      (for backward compatibility)

    • checkValue

      public Vset checkValue(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp)
      Check an expression

    • checkInitializer

      public Vset checkInitializer(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Type t, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp)

    • check

      public Vset check(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp)

    • checkLHS

      public Vset checkLHS(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp)

    • getAssigner

      public org.glassfish.rmic.tools.tree.FieldUpdater getAssigner(Environment env, Context ctx)
      Return a FieldUpdater object to be used in updating the value of the location denoted by this, which must be an expression suitable for the left-hand side of an assignment. This is used for implementing assignments to private fields for which an access method is required. Returns null if no access method is needed, in which case the assignment is handled in the usual way, by direct access. Only simple assignment expressions are handled here Assignment operators and pre/post increment/decrement operators are are handled by 'getUpdater' below.

      Called during the checking phase.

    • getUpdater

      public org.glassfish.rmic.tools.tree.FieldUpdater getUpdater(Environment env, Context ctx)
      Return a FieldUpdater object to be used in updating the value of the location denoted by this, which must be an expression suitable for the left-hand side of an assignment. This is used for implementing the assignment operators and the increment/decrement operators on private fields that require an access method, e.g., uplevel from an inner class. Returns null if no access method is needed.

      Called during the checking phase.

    • checkAssignOp

      public Vset checkAssignOp(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp, Expression outside)

    • checkAmbigName

      public Vset checkAmbigName(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp, UnaryExpression loc)
      Check something that might be an AmbiguousName (refman 6.5.2). A string of dot-separated identifiers might be, in order of preference:
    • a variable name followed by fields or types
    • a type name followed by fields or types
    • a package name followed a type and then fields or types If a type name is found, it rewrites itself as a TypeExpression. If a node decides it can only be a package prefix, it sets its type to Type.tPackage. The caller must detect this and act appropriately to verify the full package name.

    • checkCondition

      public org.glassfish.rmic.tools.tree.ConditionVars checkCondition(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp)
      Check a condition. Return a ConditionVars(), which indicates when which variables are set if the condition is true, and which are set if the condition is false.

    • checkCondition

      public void checkCondition(Environment env, Context ctx, Vset vset, Hashtable<Object,Object> exp, org.glassfish.rmic.tools.tree.ConditionVars cvars)

    • inline

      public Expression inline(Environment env, Context ctx)
      Inline. Recursively simplify each child of an expression node, destructively replacing the child with the simplified result. Also attempts to simplify the current node 'this', and returns the simplified result. The name 'inline' is somthing of a misnomer, as these methods are responsible for compile-time expression simplification in general. The 'eval' and 'simplify' methods apply to a single expression node only -- it is 'inline' and 'inlineValue' that drive the simplification of entire expressions.

    • inlineValue

      public Expression inlineValue(Environment env, Context ctx)

    • inlineValueSB

      protected StringBuffer inlineValueSB(Environment env, Context ctx, StringBuffer buffer)
      Attempt to evaluate this expression. If this expression yields a value, append it to the StringBuffer `buffer'. If this expression cannot be evaluated at this time (for example if it contains a division by zero, a non-constant subexpression, or a subexpression which "refuses" to evaluate) then return `null' to indicate failure. It is anticipated that this method will be called to evaluate concatenations of compile-time constant strings. The call originates from AddExpression#inlineValue(). See AddExpression#inlineValueSB() for detailed comments.

    • inlineLHS

      public Expression inlineLHS(Environment env, Context ctx)

    • costInline

      public int costInline(int thresh, Environment env, Context ctx)
      The cost of inlining this expression. This cost controls the inlining of methods, and does not determine the compile-time simplifications performed by 'inline' and friends.

    • codeValue

      public void codeValue(Environment env, Context ctx, Assembler asm)

    • code

      public void code(Environment env, Context ctx, Assembler asm)

    • firstConstructor

      public Expression firstConstructor()
      Check if the first thing is a constructor invocation

    • copyInline

      public Expression copyInline(Context ctx)
      Create a copy of the expression for method inlining

    • print

      public void print(PrintStream out)
      Print
      Overrides:
      print in class Node
