Type literal AST node type.

 TypeLiteral:
     ( Type | void ) . class
 

Note: This Class only applies to ECMAScript 4 which is not yet supported

Provisional API: This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Field Detail

TYPE_PROPERTY

public static final ChildPropertyDescriptor TYPE_PROPERTY
The "type" structural property of this node type.

Method Detail

propertyDescriptors

public static java.util.List propertyDescriptors(int apiLevel)
Returns a list of structural property descriptors for this node type. Clients must not modify the result.

Parameters:
apiLevel - the API level; one of the AST.JLS* constants
Returns:
a list of property descriptors (element type: StructuralPropertyDescriptor)

getType

public Type getType()
Returns the type in this type literal expression.

Returns:
the type

setType

public void setType(Type type)
Sets the type in this type literal expression to the given type.

Parameters:
type - the new type
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if:
  • the node belongs to a different AST
  • the node already has a parent
