Constructor Detail

IdReference

public IdReference()

Method Detail

getDeclarationId

public abstract java.lang.String getDeclarationId()

Get the declaration ID being referenced.

Returns:

the declaration ID

setDeclarationId

public abstract boolean setDeclarationId(java.lang.String id)

Change this reference to point to a different declaration.

Parameters:

id - the id of the declaration

Returns:

true if the reference is successfully changed, false otherwise

resolve

public Declaration resolve(Context context)
                    throws java.lang.InterruptedException

Description copied from interface: Reference

Resolve this reference to the corresponding declaration, if it exists.

Specified by:

resolve in interface Reference

Parameters:

context - the context

Returns:

the declaration, or null if the declaration is not found

Throws:

java.lang.InterruptedException - if the operation is interrupted

isReferenceTo

public boolean isReferenceTo(Context context,
                             Declaration declaration)

Description copied from interface: Reference

Determine whether this is a reference to a specifc declaration. A simple implementation of this method would be to call Reference.resolve(oracle.ide.Context) and check if the result matches the declaration. But some implementations may be able to optimize this.

Specified by:

isReferenceTo in interface Reference

Parameters:

context - the context

declaration - the declaration

Returns:

true if the reference would resolve to this declaration, false otherwise
