StringLiteral

public StringLiteral(Rule rule,
                     ParseNode token)
Method Detail

bind

public void bind()
verify that variables mentioned in this expression are actually available in the supplied bindings list and infer/validate the type of this expression or its subexpressions where possible

Specified by:
bind in class Expression

typeCheck

public Type typeCheck(Type expected)
               throws TypeException
Description copied from class: Expression
ensure that all type references in the expression and its component expressions can be resolved, that the type of the expression is well-defined and that it is compatible with the type expected in the context in which it occurs.

Specified by:
typeCheck in class Expression
Parameters:
expected - the type expected for the expression in the contxet in which it occurs. this may be void but should not be undefined at the point where type checking is performed.
Throws:
TypeException

interpret

public java.lang.Object interpret(HelperAdapter helper)
                           throws ExecuteException
Description copied from class: Expression
evaluate the expression by interpreting the expression tree

Specified by:
interpret in class Expression
Parameters:
helper - an execution context associated with the rule which contains a map of current bindings for rule variables and another map of their declared types both of which are indexed by variable name. This includes entries for the helper (name "-1"), the recipient if the trigger method is not static (name "0") and the trigger method arguments (names "1", ...)
Returns:
the result of evaluation as an Object
Throws:
ExecuteException

compile

public void compile(MethodVisitor mv,
                    CompileContext compileContext)
             throws CompileException
Specified by:
compile in class RuleElement
Throws:
CompileException

writeTo

public void writeTo(java.io.StringWriter stringWriter)
Specified by:
writeTo in class Expression
