Class TypeNameMatchRequestor

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.search.TypeNameMatchRequestor

public abstract class TypeNameMatchRequestor
extends java.lang.Object

A TypeNameMatchRequestor collects matches from a searchAllTypeNames query to a SearchEngine. Clients must subclass this abstract class and pass an instance to the SearchEngine#searchAllTypeNames( char[] packageName, int packageMatchRule, char[] typeName, int typeMatchRule, int searchFor, IJavaScriptSearchScope scope, TypeNameMatchRequestor nameMatchRequestor, int waitingPolicy, org.eclipse.core.runtime.IProgressMonitor monitor) method. Only top-level and member types are reported. Local types are not reported.

While TypeNameRequestor only reports type names information (e.g. package, enclosing types, simple name, modifiers, etc.), this class reports TypeNameMatch objects instead, which store this information and can return an IType handle.

This class may be subclassed by clients.

TypeNameMatch, 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.
