  • Method Details

    • getInstance

      public static BiVariable getInstance(RubyObject receiver, String name, Object... javaObject)
      Returns an instance of this class. This factory method is used when a constant is put in BiVariableMap.
      Parameters:
      receiver - object that this constant/variable is in.
      name - a variable name
      javaObject - Java object that should be assigned to.
      Returns:
      the instance of Constant

    • retrieve

      public static void retrieve(RubyObject receiver, BiVariableMap vars)
      Retrieves constants from Ruby after the evaluation or method invocation.
      Parameters:
      receiver - receiver object returned when a script is evaluated.
      vars - map to save retrieved constants.

    • retrieveByKey

      public static void retrieveByKey(RubyObject receiver, BiVariableMap vars, String key)
      Retrieves a constant by key from Ruby runtime after the evaluation. This method is used when eager retrieval is off.
      Parameters:
      receiver - receiver object returned when a script is evaluated.
      vars - map to save retrieved instance variables.
      key - instace varible name

    • getType

      public BiVariable.Type getType()
      Returns enum type of this variable defined in BiVariable.
      Returns:
      this enum type, BiVariable.Type.Constant.

    • isValidName

      public static boolean isValidName(Object name)
      Returns true if the given name is a decent Ruby constant. Unless returns false.
      Parameters:
      name - is a name to be checked.
      Returns:
      true if the given name is of a Ruby constant.

    • inject

      public void inject()
      Injects a constant value to a parsed Ruby script. This method is invoked during EvalUnit#run() is executed.

    • remove

      public void remove()
      Attempts to remove this constant from top self or receiver.

    • updateByJavaObject

      protected void updateByJavaObject(Ruby runtime, Object... values)

    • updateRubyObject

      protected void updateRubyObject(IRubyObject rubyObject)

    • getReceiver

      public IRubyObject getReceiver()
      Description copied from interface: BiVariable
      Returns the original receiver where this variable has been retrieved.
      Specified by:
      getReceiver in interface BiVariable
      Returns:
      an original receiver.

    • isReceiverIdentical

      public boolean isReceiverIdentical(RubyObject receiver)
      Returns true if a given receiver is identical to the receiver this object has.
      Specified by:
      isReceiverIdentical in interface BiVariable
      Returns:
      true if identical otherwise false

    • getName

      public String getName()
      Description copied from interface: BiVariable
      Returns a name of the variable this object holds. The name follows Ruby's naming rule.
      Specified by:
      getName in interface BiVariable
      Returns:
      a name of the variable

    • getJavaObject

      public Object getJavaObject()
      Description copied from interface: BiVariable
      Returns a value of the variable this object holds in Java type.
      Specified by:
      getJavaObject in interface BiVariable
      Returns:
      a value in Java type.

    • setJavaObject

      public void setJavaObject(Ruby runtime, Object javaObject)
      Description copied from interface: BiVariable
      Sets a Java object as a value of this object. At the same time, an equivalent Ruby object is set automatically.
      Specified by:
      setJavaObject in interface BiVariable
      Parameters:
      runtime - is used to convert a Java object to Ruby object.
      javaObject - is a variable value to be set.
