  lombok.javac.Javac

public class Javac
extends Object

Container for static utility methods relevant to lombok's operation on javac.

Method Summary

static Object	calculateGuess(com.sun.tools.javac.tree.JCTree.JCExpression expr) Turns an expression into a guessed intended literal.
static int	getCtcInt(Class<?> ctcLocation, String identifier) Retrieves a compile time constant of type int from the specified class location.
static boolean	isPrimitive(com.sun.tools.javac.tree.JCTree.JCExpression ref) Checks if the given expression (that really ought to refer to a type expression) represents a primitive type.

Method Detail

isPrimitive

public static boolean isPrimitive(com.sun.tools.javac.tree.JCTree.JCExpression ref)

Checks if the given expression (that really ought to refer to a type expression) represents a primitive type.

calculateGuess

public static Object calculateGuess(com.sun.tools.javac.tree.JCTree.JCExpression expr)

Turns an expression into a guessed intended literal. Only works for literals, as you can imagine. Will for example turn a TrueLiteral into 'Boolean.valueOf(true)'.

getCtcInt

public static int getCtcInt(Class<?> ctcLocation,
                            String identifier)

Retrieves a compile time constant of type int from the specified class location. Solves the problem of compile time constant inlining, resulting in lombok having the wrong value (javac compiler changes private api constants from time to time)

Parameters:

ctcLocation - location of the compile time constant

identifier - the name of the field of the compile time constant.
