Method Detail

create

public LanguageSpecificMiddleEnd create(java.lang.Object specificData)

Description copied from interface: LanguageSpecificMiddleEndFactory

This method creates the actual implementation of the middle end. The specificData parameter is passed through from the MiddleEnd constructor.
It is permitted for implementations to throw an IllegalArgumentException, which is the official way for an implementation to say that it views the passed data as insufficient to perform, and therefore needs to be removed from the list of registered middle ends. This is done on a per-call basis and avoids the necessity to always initialize all middle end implementations.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Description copied from interface: LanguageSpecificMiddleEndFactory

a clear text name describing the language / middle end

Specified by:

getName in interface LanguageSpecificMiddleEndFactory

getPriority

public int getPriority()

Description copied from interface: LanguageSpecificMiddleEndFactory

the priority is a possible way to determine the order in which the middle ends are asked if they can handle a given resource. Typically, only one middle end implementation should declare that it can handle a given resource (i.e. source file), and in this case a priority of 0 should be returned.
In the rare case where it is needed, highest priority is asked first.
