Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

This is used in the type name in typed expressions

Returns:

human readable type name

getType

public Type getType()

Returns the type of the parameter type - typically the type the transform transforms to. This can be used in conjunction with GeneratedExpression (snippets) to generate snippets for statically typed languages. Not used for anything else.

Returns:

the type of the parameter type

getRegexps

public List<String> getRegexps()

preferForRegexpMatch

public boolean preferForRegexpMatch()

Indicates whether or not this is a preferential parameter type when matching text against a RegularExpression. In case there are multiple parameter types with a regexp identical to the capture group's regexp, a preferential parameter type will win. If there are more than 1 preferential ones, an error will be thrown.

Returns:

true if this is a preferential type

useForSnippets

public boolean useForSnippets()

Indicates whether or not this is a parameter type that should be used for generating GeneratedExpressions from text. Typically, parameter types with greedy regexps should return false.

Returns:

true is this parameter type is used for expression generation

compareTo

public int compareTo(ParameterType<?> o)

Specified by:

compareTo in interface Comparable<T>
