public class PrimitiveType

extends Type

Primitive type nodes.

 PrimitiveType:
    byte
    short
    char
    int
    long
    float
    double
    boolean
    void
 

Note that due to the fact that AST nodes belong to a specific AST and have a specific parent, there needs to multiple instances of these nodes.

Since:

Field Detail

INT

public static final PrimitiveType.Code INT

Type code for the primitive type "int".

CHAR

public static final PrimitiveType.Code CHAR

Type code for the primitive type "char".

BOOLEAN

public static final PrimitiveType.Code BOOLEAN

Type code for the primitive type "boolean".

SHORT

public static final PrimitiveType.Code SHORT

Type code for the primitive type "short".

LONG

public static final PrimitiveType.Code LONG

Type code for the primitive type "long".

FLOAT

public static final PrimitiveType.Code FLOAT

Type code for the primitive type "float".

DOUBLE

public static final PrimitiveType.Code DOUBLE

Type code for the primitive type "double".

BYTE

public static final PrimitiveType.Code BYTE

Type code for the primitive type "byte".

VOID

public static final PrimitiveType.Code VOID

Type code for the primitive type "void". Note that "void" is special in that its only legitimate uses are as a method return type and as a type literal.

Method Detail

toCode

public static PrimitiveType.Code toCode(String token)

Returns the primitive type code corresponding to the given string, or null if none.

toCode is the converse of toString: that is, PrimitiveType.Code.toCode(code.toString()) == code for all type code code.

Parameters:

token - the standard name of the primitive type

Returns:

the primitive type code, or null if none

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

getPrimitiveTypeCode

public PrimitiveType.Code getPrimitiveTypeCode()

Returns the primitive type code.

Returns:

one of the primitive type code constants declared in this class

setPrimitiveTypeCode

public void setPrimitiveTypeCode(PrimitiveType.Code typeCode)

Sets the primitive type code.

Parameters:

typeCode - one of the primitive type code constants declared in this class

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the argument is incorrect
