Class ControlFlowAnalysis

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    CompilerPass, NodeTraversal.Callback

    public final class ControlFlowAnalysis
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements NodeTraversal.Callback, CompilerPass
    This is a compiler pass that computes a control flow graph. Note that this is only a CompilerPass because the Compiler invokes it via Compiler#process. It is never included in a PassConfig.

      • process

        public void process​(Node externs,
                            Node root)
        Description copied from interface: CompilerPass
        Process the JS with root node root. Can modify the contents of each Node tree
        Specified by:
        process in interface CompilerPass
        Parameters:
        externs - Top of external JS tree
        root - Top of JS tree
      • visit

        public void visit​(NodeTraversal t,
                          Node n,
                          Node parent)
        Description copied from interface: NodeTraversal.Callback
        Visits a node in postorder (after its children). A node is visited in postorder iff NodeTraversal.Callback.shouldTraverse(NodeTraversal, Node, Node) returned true for its parent. In particular, the root node is never visited in postorder.

        Siblings are always visited left-to-right.

        Implementations can have side-effects (e.g. modify the parse tree). Removing the current node is legal, but removing or reordering nodes above the current node may cause nodes to be visited twice or not at all.

        Specified by:
        visit in interface NodeTraversal.Callback
        Parameters:
        t - The current traversal.
        n - The current node.
        parent - The parent of the current node.
      • isBreakTarget

        public static boolean isBreakTarget​(Node target,
                                            java.lang.String label)
        Checks if target is actually the break target of labeled continue. The label can be null if it is an unlabeled break.
      • mayThrowException

        public static boolean mayThrowException​(Node n)
        Determines if the subtree might throw an exception.
