Method Details
-
propertyDescriptors
Returns a list of structural property descriptors for this node type. Clients must not modify the result.- Parameters:
apiLevel- the API level; one of theAST.JLS*constants- Returns:
- a list of property descriptors (element type:
StructuralPropertyDescriptor) - Since:
- 3.0
-
getExpression
Returns the expression of this method invocation expression, ornullif there is none.- Returns:
- the expression node, or
nullif there is none
-
isResolvedTypeInferredFromExpectedType
public boolean isResolvedTypeInferredFromExpectedType()Returnstrueif the resolved return type has been inferred from the assignment context (JLS3 15.12.2.8),falseotherwise.This information is available only when bindings are requested when the AST is being built
.- Returns:
trueif the resolved return type has been inferred from the assignment context (JLS3 15.12.2.8),falseotherwise- Since:
- 3.3
-
setExpression
Sets or clears the expression of this method invocation expression.- Parameters:
expression- the expression node, ornullif there is none- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException- if:- the node belongs to a different AST
- the node already has a parent
- a cycle in would be created
-
typeArguments
Returns the live ordered list of type arguments of this method invocation (added in JLS3 API).- Returns:
- the live list of type arguments
(element type:
Type) - Throws:
UnsupportedOperationException- if this operation is used in a JLS2 AST- Since:
- 3.1
-
getName
Returns the name of the method invoked in this expression.- Returns:
- the method name node
-
setName
Sets the name of the method invoked in this expression to the given name.- Parameters:
name- the new method name- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException- if:- the node belongs to a different AST
- the node already has a parent
-
arguments
Returns the live ordered list of argument expressions in this method invocation expression.- Returns:
- the live list of argument expressions
(element type:
Expression)
-
resolveMethodBinding
Resolves and returns the binding for the method invoked by this expression.Note that bindings are generally unavailable unless requested when the AST is being built.
- Returns:
- the method binding, or
nullif the binding cannot be resolved - Since:
- 2.1
