Class GenericPatternMatcher

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.incquery.runtime.internal.apiimpl.QueryResultWrapper

org.eclipse.incquery.runtime.api.impl.BaseMatcher<GenericPatternMatch>

org.eclipse.incquery.runtime.api.GenericPatternMatcher

All Implemented Interfaces:

IncQueryMatcher<GenericPatternMatch>

Direct Known Subclasses:

GenericPatternMatcher

public class GenericPatternMatcher
extends BaseMatcher<GenericPatternMatch>

This is a generic pattern matcher for any IncQuery pattern, with "interpretative" query execution. To use the pattern matcher on a given model, obtain a GenericQuerySpecification first, then invoke e.g. BaseQuerySpecification.getMatcher(IncQueryEngine). in conjunction with IncQueryEngine.on(org.eclipse.incquery.runtime.api.scope.IncQueryScope).

Whenever available, consider using the pattern-specific generated matcher API instead.

Matches of the pattern will be represented as GenericPatternMatch.
