Method Summary

ExpressionT	getInitializer() Gets the initializer, null if none.
VariableDeclT	getOwningDeclaration() Gets the owning variable declaration, null if this is a formal parameter.
TypeReferenceT	getType() Gets the type reference for this element.
void	setInitializer(ExpressionT expr) Unlinks the current initializer, if any, and links the input element.

Field Detail

EMPTY_ARRAY

static final VariableT[] EMPTY_ARRAY

Method Detail

getInitializer

ExpressionT getInitializer()

Gets the initializer, null if none.

Returns:

This variable's initializer. Null if none was declared.

setInitializer

void setInitializer(ExpressionT expr)

Unlinks the current initializer, if any, and links the input element.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the input element is already linked.

getOwningDeclaration

VariableDeclT getOwningDeclaration()

Gets the owning variable declaration, null if this is a formal parameter.

Returns:

The owning variable declaration.

 Field variables (SRC_FIELD_VARIABLE) return SrcFieldDeclaration's.
 Formal parameters (SRC_FORMAL_PARAMETER) return null.
 Local variables (SRC_LOCAL_VARIABLE) return SrcLocalsDeclaration's.
 

getType

TypeReferenceT getType()

Gets the type reference for this element.

Returns:

This element's type reference.

setType

void setType(TypeReferenceT type)

Unlinks the current source type and links the input element.

Parameters:

type - The new type reference.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the input type is already linked.
