Method Detail

getNodeType

public int getNodeType()

Description copied from class: ASTNode

Returns an integer value identifying the type of this concrete AST node. The values are small positive integers, suitable for use in switch statements.

For each concrete node type there is a unique node type constant (name and value). The unique node type constant for a concrete node type such as CastExpression is ASTNode.CAST_EXPRESSION.

Specified by:

getNodeType in class ASTNode

Returns:

one of the node type constants

subtreeMatch

public boolean subtreeMatch(ASTMatcher matcher,
                            Object other)

Description copied from class: ASTNode

Returns whether the subtree rooted at the given node matches the given other object as decided by the given matcher.

Specified by:

subtreeMatch in class ASTNode

Parameters:

matcher - the matcher

other - the other object, or null

Returns:

true if the subtree matches, or false if they do not match

getOperator

public Assignment.Operator getOperator()

Returns the operator of this assignment expression.

Returns:

the assignment operator

setOperator

public void setOperator(Assignment.Operator assignmentOperator)

Sets the operator of this assignment expression.

Parameters:

assignmentOperator - the assignment operator

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the argument is incorrect

getLeftHandSide

public Expression getLeftHandSide()

Returns the left hand side of this assignment expression.

Returns:

the left hand side node

setLeftHandSide

public void setLeftHandSide(Expression expression)

Sets the left hand side of this assignment expression.

Parameters:

expression - the left hand side node

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if:

• the node belongs to a different AST
• the node already has a parent
• a cycle in would be created

getRightHandSide

public Expression getRightHandSide()

Returns the right hand side of this assignment expression.

Returns:

the right hand side node

setRightHandSide

public void setRightHandSide(Expression expression)

Sets the right hand side of this assignment expression.

Parameters:

expression - the right hand side node

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if:

• the node belongs to a different AST
• the node already has a parent
• a cycle in would be created
