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

REGULAR_EXPRESSION_PROPERTY

public static final SimplePropertyDescriptor REGULAR_EXPRESSION_PROPERTY
The "escapedValue" 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)

getRegularExpression

public java.lang.String getRegularExpression()
Returns the string value of this literal node. The value is the sequence of characters that would appear in the source program, including enclosing single quotes and embedded escapes.

Returns:
the escaped string value, including enclosing single quotes and embedded escapes

setRegularExpression

public void setRegularExpression(java.lang.String value)
Sets the string value of this literal node. The value is the sequence of characters that would appear in the source program, including enclosing single quotes and embedded escapes. For example,

Parameters:
value - the string value, including enclosing single quotes and embedded escapes
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the argument is incorrect
