Method Detail

isEqualsMethod

public static boolean isEqualsMethod(DetailAST ast)

Tests whether a method definition AST defines an equals covariant.

Parameters:

ast - the method definition AST to test. Precondition: ast is a TokenTypes.METHOD_DEF node.

Returns:

true if ast defines an equals covariant.

isElseIf

public static boolean isElseIf(DetailAST ast)

Returns whether a token represents an ELSE as part of an ELSE / IF set.

Parameters:

ast - the token to check

Returns:

whether it is

createFullType

public static FullIdent createFullType(DetailAST typeAST)

Creates FullIdent for given type node.

Parameters:

typeAST - a type node.

Returns:

FullIdent for given type.

parseDouble

public static double parseDouble(String text,
                                 int type)

Returns the value represented by the specified string of the specified type. Returns 0 for types other than float, double, int, and long.

Parameters:

text - the string to be parsed.

type - the token type of the text. Should be a constant of TokenTypes.

Returns:

the double value represented by the string argument.

getFirstNode

public static DetailAST getFirstNode(DetailAST node)

Finds sub-node for given node minimal (line, column) pair.

Parameters:

node - the root of tree for search.

Returns:

sub-node with minimal (line, column) pair.

getTypeParameterNames

public static List<String> getTypeParameterNames(DetailAST node)

Retrieves the names of the type parameters to the node.

Parameters:

node - the parameterized AST node

Returns:

a list of type parameter names

getTypeParameters

public static List<DetailAST> getTypeParameters(DetailAST node)

Retrieves the type parameters to the node.

Parameters:

node - the parameterized AST node

Returns:

a list of type parameter names

isSetterMethod

public static boolean isSetterMethod(DetailAST ast)

Returns whether an AST represents a setter method.

Parameters:

ast - the AST to check with

Returns:

whether the AST represents a setter method

isGetterMethod

public static boolean isGetterMethod(DetailAST ast)

Returns whether an AST represents a getter method.

Parameters:

ast - the AST to check with

Returns:

whether the AST represents a getter method

isVoidMethod

public static boolean isVoidMethod(DetailAST methodDefAst)

Checks whether a method is a void one.

Parameters:

methodDefAst - the method node.

Returns:

true if method is a void one.
