Method Details

demandClass

public static ClassOrInterfaceDeclaration demandClass(CompilationUnit cu,
 String qualifiedName)

demandClassOrInterface

public static ClassOrInterfaceDeclaration demandClassOrInterface(CompilationUnit compilationUnit,
 String qualifiedName)

demandConstructor

public static ConstructorDeclaration demandConstructor(TypeDeclaration<?> td,
 int index)

Returns the (i+1)'th constructor of the given type declaration, in textual order. The constructor that appears first has the index 0, the second one the index 1, and so on.

Parameters:

td - The type declaration to search in. Note that only classes and enums have constructors.

index - The index of the desired constructor.

Returns:

The desired ConstructorDeclaration if it was found, else an exception is thrown.

demandEnum

public static EnumDeclaration demandEnum(CompilationUnit cu,
 String qualifiedName)

demandField

public static VariableDeclarator demandField(ClassOrInterfaceDeclaration cd,
 String name)

demandInterface

public static ClassOrInterfaceDeclaration demandInterface(CompilationUnit cu,
 String qualifiedName)

demandMethod

public static MethodDeclaration demandMethod(TypeDeclaration<?> cd,
 String name)

demandNodeOfGivenClass

public static <N extends Node> N demandNodeOfGivenClass(Node node,
 Class<N> clazz)

demandParentNode

public static Node demandParentNode(Node node)

demandReturnStmt

public static ReturnStmt demandReturnStmt(MethodDeclaration method)

demandSwitch

public static SwitchStmt demandSwitch(Node node)

demandVariableDeclaration

public static Optional<VariableDeclarator> demandVariableDeclaration(Node node,
 String name)

findMethodCall

public static Optional<MethodCallExpr> findMethodCall(Node node,
 String methodName)

findNameExpression

public static Optional<NameExpr> findNameExpression(Node node,
 String name)

findNodeOfGivenClass

@Deprecated
public static <N extends Node> N findNodeOfGivenClass(Node node,
 Class<N> clazz)

Deprecated.

Use demandNodeOfGivenClass(Node, Class)

findReturnStmt

@Deprecated
public static ReturnStmt findReturnStmt(MethodDeclaration method)

Deprecated.

Use demandReturnStmt(MethodDeclaration)

findSimpleName

public static Optional<SimpleName> findSimpleName(Node node,
 String name)

findSwitch

@Deprecated
public static SwitchStmt findSwitch(Node node)

Deprecated.

Use demandSwitch(Node)

findType

public static Optional<TypeDeclaration<?>> findType(CompilationUnit cu,
 String qualifiedName)

Looks among the type declared in the Compilation Unit for one having the specified name. The name can be qualified with respect to the compilation unit. For example, if the compilation unit is in package a.b; and it contains two top level classes named C and D, with class E being defined inside D then the qualifiedName that can be resolved are "C", "D", and "D.E".

findType

public static Optional<TypeDeclaration<?>> findType(TypeDeclaration<?> td,
 String qualifiedName)

Looks among the type declared in the TypeDeclaration for one having the specified name. The name can be qualified with respect to the TypeDeclaration. For example, if the class declaration defines class D and class D contains an internal class named E then the qualifiedName that can be resolved are "D", and "D.E".

requireParentNode

@Deprecated
public static Node requireParentNode(Node node)

Deprecated.

Use demandParentNode(Node)
