Interface AnnotatedElement

All Known Subinterfaces:

public interface AnnotatedElement

Dali manipulates annotations on elements (packages, types, fields, and methods). This interface simplifies those manipulations. Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is 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. This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.

Method Detail

getName

java.lang.String getName()

getBodyDeclaration

org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.ASTNode getBodyDeclaration(org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.CompilationUnit astRoot)
Return the annotated element's body declaration from the specified AST. This can be null if the annotated element is no longer present in the AST because the source has been changed in another thread.


getBinding

org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.IBinding getBinding(org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.CompilationUnit astRoot)
Return the annotated element's binding from the specified AST.


getModifiedDeclaration

ModifiedDeclaration getModifiedDeclaration(org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.CompilationUnit astRoot)
Return the annotated element's "modified" declaration from the specified AST.


getModifiedDeclaration

ModifiedDeclaration getModifiedDeclaration()
Return the annotated element's "modified" declaration from a newly-generated AST.


getNameTextRange

TextRange getNameTextRange(org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.CompilationUnit astRoot)
Return the annotated element's name text range from the specified AST.


edit

void edit(AnnotatedElement.Editor editor)
Edit the annotated element's declaration using the specified editor.
