Method Detail

findPackage

public com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol.PackageSymbol findPackage(String name,
                                                                 TreePath path)

Finds the package with name name.

Parameters:

name - The name of the package.

path - The tree path to the local scope.

Returns:

the PackageSymbol for the package if it is found, null otherwise

findField

public VariableElement findField(String name,
                                 TypeMirror type,
                                 TreePath path)

The method adheres to all the rules of Java's scoping (while also considering the imports) for name resolution.

Parameters:

name - The name of the field.

type - The type of the receiver (i.e., the type in which to look for the field).

path - The tree path to the local scope.

Returns:

the element for the field

findLocalVariableOrParameterOrField

public VariableElement findLocalVariableOrParameterOrField(String name,
                                                           TreePath path)

Finds the local variable with name name in the given scope.

Parameters:

name - The name of the local variable.

path - The tree path to the local scope.

Returns:

the element for the local variable

findClass

public Element findClass(String name,
                         TreePath path)

Finds the class literal with name name.

The method adheres to all the rules of Java's scoping (while also considering the imports) for name resolution.

Parameters:

name - The name of the class.

path - The tree path to the local scope.

Returns:

the element for the class

findClassInPackage

public com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol.ClassSymbol findClassInPackage(String name,
                                                                      com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol.PackageSymbol pck,

Finds the class with name name in a given package.

Parameters:

name - The name of the class.

pck - The PackageSymbol for the package.

path - The tree path to the local scope.

Returns:

the ClassSymbol for the class if it is found, null otherwise

findMethod

public Element findMethod(String methodName,
                          TypeMirror receiverType,
                          TreePath path,
                          List<TypeMirror> argumentTypes)

Finds the method element for a given name and list of expected parameter types.

The method adheres to all the rules of Java's scoping (while also considering the imports) for name resolution.

Parameters:

methodName - Name of the method to find.

receiverType - Type of the receiver of the method

path - Tree path.

Returns:

the method element (if found)
