Constructor Detail

DeclarationElement

public DeclarationElement(java.lang.Object declarationContext,
                          java.lang.String name,
                          java.lang.String modifiers)

DeclarationElement

public DeclarationElement(java.lang.Object declarationContext,
                          java.lang.String name,
                          java.lang.String modifiers,
                          IDeclaration[] nestedDeclarations)

Method Detail

getDeclarations

public IDeclaration[] getDeclarations()

Description copied from interface: IDeclarationBlock

The array of IDeclaration instances in this block.

Specified by:

getDeclarations in interface IDeclarationBlock

Returns:

The array of IDeclaration instances in this block.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Description copied from interface: IDeclarationElement

An optional name for the declaration element.

Specified by:

getName in interface IDeclarationElement

Returns:

An optional name for the declaration element.

hasModifier

public boolean hasModifier(java.lang.String modifier)

Description copied from interface: IDeclarationElement

true if the declaration has the requested modifier.

An implementation is free to support modifiers and define their respective semantics.

An example for a modifier may be "persistent" to indicate the implementation should store argument values to be able to present them again in a later call (in a wizard for example).

Specified by:

hasModifier in interface IDeclarationElement

Parameters:

modifier - The modifier name.

Returns:

true if the declaration has the requested modifier.

isBlock

public boolean isBlock()

Description copied from interface: IDeclaration

true if this declaration has child elements itself.

A IDeclarationElement may be a IDeclarationBlock, supporting nested declarations. You should not use "instanceof IDeclarationBlock" to check this behavior but this method.

Specified by:

isBlock in interface IDeclaration

Overrides:

isBlock in class Declaration

Returns:

true if this declaration has child elements itself.

size

public int size()

Description copied from interface: IDeclarationBlock

The number of declarations in this block.

Specified by:

size in interface IDeclarationBlock

Returns:

The number of declarations in this block.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
