      • 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 - if the expression cannot be compiled to bytecode
      • compileToPrimitive

        public void compileToPrimitive​(CompilerService compiler,
                                       Expression expression,
                                       java.lang.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 - if the expression cannot be compiled to bytecode
      • 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 - if the expression cannot be compiled to bytecode
      • 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 - if the expression cannot be compiled to bytecode
