    • isImmutable

      boolean isImmutable()
      By default a CodeNode retrieved from an existing source (e.g. via CodeLoader.getType(String)) is immutable. Use an according edit() method to get a new mutable copy of the object before you do any changes. A newly created CodeItem will however always be mutable. In case a CodeMutable object is immutable, all setter methods will throw a ReadOnlyException and all Collections returned by getters will be unmodifiable.
      Returns:
      true if this item itself (not the reflected code) is immutable and can not be edited (setters may be called without getting exceptions), false otherwise (if mutable).

    • isMutable

      default boolean isMutable()
      Returns:
      true if mutable (not immutable)
