Package com.github.javaparser.ast.expr

Class Name

java.lang.Object

com.github.javaparser.ast.Node

com.github.javaparser.ast.expr.Name

All Implemented Interfaces:

NodeWithIdentifier<Name>, NodeWithRange<Node>, NodeWithTokenRange<Node>, Observable, Visitable, HasParentNode<Node>, Cloneable

public final class Name
extends Node
implements NodeWithIdentifier<Name>

A name that may consist of multiple identifiers. In other words: it.may.contain.dots.

The rightmost identifier is "identifier", The one to the left of it is "qualifier.identifier", etc.

You can construct one from a String with the name(...) method.

Method Detail

accept

public <R,A> R accept(GenericVisitor<R,A> v,
                            A arg)

Description copied from interface: Visitable

Accept method for visitor support.

Specified by:

accept in interface Visitable

Type Parameters:

R - the type of the return value of the visitor

A - the type the user argument passed to the visitor

Parameters:

v - the visitor implementation

arg - the argument passed to the visitor (of type A)

Returns:

the result of the visit (of type R)

accept

public <A> void accept(VoidVisitor<A> v,
                       A arg)

Description copied from interface: Visitable

Accept method for visitor support.

Specified by:

accept in interface Visitable

Type Parameters:

A - the type the argument passed for the visitor

Parameters:

v - the visitor implementation

arg - any value relevant for the visitor (of type A)

getIdentifier

public String getIdentifier()

Specified by:

getIdentifier in interface NodeWithIdentifier<Name>

setIdentifier

public Name setIdentifier(String identifier)

Specified by:

setIdentifier in interface NodeWithIdentifier<Name>

parse

@Deprecated
public static Name parse(String qualifiedName)

Deprecated.

use JavaParser.parseName instead

The qualified name can contains "." (dot) characters.

Parameters:

qualifiedName - qualified name

Returns:

instanceof Name

asString

public String asString()

Returns:

the complete qualified name. Only the identifiers and the dots, so no comments or whitespace.

getQualifier

setQualifier

public Name setQualifier(Name qualifier)

remove

public boolean remove(Node node)

Overrides:

remove in class Node

removeQualifier

public Name removeQualifier()

clone

public Name clone()

Overrides:

clone in class Node

getMetaModel

public NameMetaModel getMetaModel()

Overrides:

getMetaModel in class Node

Returns:

get JavaParser specific node introspection information.

replace

public boolean replace(Node node,
                       Node replacementNode)

Overrides:

replace in class Node

isTopLevel

public boolean isTopLevel()
