Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler
Generate bytecode to evaluate the expression leaving a plain Java value on the stack. This method must only be called if the static type of the expressionis 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 - defines the action to be taken if the expression evaluates to the empty sequence. May be null if the expression is known statically not to evaluate to an empty sequence. If the return class is a primitive type (double, float, etc) this must be an instance of OnEmpty.UnwindAndJump
Throws:
CannotCompileException
