Constructor Summary

LiteralCompiler()

Method Summary

void	compileToBoolean(CompilerService compiler, Expression expression) Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression as a boolean Precondition: none.
void	compileToItem(CompilerService compiler, Expression expression) Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression as an Item Precondition: none.
void	compileToIterator(CompilerService compiler, Expression expression) Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression as a SequenceIterator Precondition: none.

compileToItem

public void compileToItem(CompilerService compiler,
                          Expression expression)
                   throws CannotCompileException

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression as an Item Precondition: none. Postcondition: at execution time, the stack contains either an item (the result of the expression), or null (representing an empty sequence).

Specified by:

compileToItem in class ExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expression - the expression to be compiled

Throws:

CannotCompileException

compileToPrimitive

public void compileToPrimitive(CompilerService compiler,
                               Expression expression,
                               Class requiredClass,
                               OnEmpty onEmpty)
                        throws CannotCompileException

Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression leaving a plain Java value on the stack. The static type of the expression must be such that the value is known to be representable by a value of the specified class; the cardinality must be either exactly-one or zero-or-one.

Overrides:

compileToPrimitive in class ExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expression - the expression to be compiled

requiredClass - the class of the Java value that is to be left on the stack if the generated code exits normally. This must be one of Integer.TYPE, Double.TYPE, Float.TYPE, BigDecimal.class, CharSequence.class.

onEmpty - action to be performed if the value of the expression is an empty sequence

Throws:

CannotCompileException

compileToIterator

public void compileToIterator(CompilerService compiler,
                              Expression expression)
                       throws CannotCompileException

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression as a SequenceIterator Precondition: none. Postcondition: at execution time, the stack contains a SequenceIterator representing the result of the expression

Specified by:

compileToIterator in class ExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expression - the expression to be compiled

Throws:

CannotCompileException

compileToBoolean

public void compileToBoolean(CompilerService compiler,
                             Expression expression)
                      throws CannotCompileException

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression as a boolean Precondition: none. Postcondition: at execution time, the stack contains an integer (0=false, 1=true) representing the result of the expression

Specified by:

compileToBoolean in class ExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expression - the expression to be compiled

Throws:

CannotCompileException

compileToPush

public void compileToPush(CompilerService compiler,
                          Expression expression)
                   throws CannotCompileException

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression in push mode Precondition: none. Postcondition: at execution time, the stack is unchanged, and the value of the expression has been written to the current receiver

Specified by:

compileToPush in class ExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expression - the expression to be compiled

Throws:

CannotCompileException
