public interface INameEnvironmentExtension
extends INameEnvironment

The name environment provides a callback API that the compiler can use to look up types, compilation units, and packages in the current environment. The name environment is passed to the compiler on creation. This name environment adds a method to switch on/off the search for secondary types. Refer findType(char[], char[][], boolean).

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
default NameEnvironmentAnswer	findType(char[] typeName, char[][] packageName, boolean searchWithSecondaryTypes)
NameEnvironmentAnswer	findType(char[] typeName, char[][] packageName, boolean searchWithSecondaryTypes, char[] moduleName)	Find a type named <typeName> in the package <packageName>.

Method Details

findType

NameEnvironmentAnswer findType(char[] typeName,
 char[][] packageName,
 boolean searchWithSecondaryTypes,
 char[] moduleName)

Find a type named <typeName> in the package <packageName>. Answer the binary form of the type if it is known to be consistent. Otherwise, answer the compilation unit which defines the type or null if the type does not exist. The default package is indicated by char[0][]. It is known that the package containing the type exists. NOTE: This method can be used to find a member type using its internal name A$B, but the source file for A is answered if the binary file is inconsistent. The flag <searchWithSecondaryTypes> can be used to switch on/off the search for secondary types. This is useful because the search for secondary types may by very expensive regarding the performance and in many cases it isn't necessary to search for secondary types.

Parameters:

typeName - type to find

packageName - package of the searched type

searchWithSecondaryTypes - flag to switch on/off the search for secondary types

moduleName - the name of the module to search in, or one of ModuleBinding.ANY, ModuleBinding.UNNAMED

Returns:

NameEnvironmentAnswer

default NameEnvironmentAnswer findType(char[] typeName,
 char[][] packageName,
 boolean searchWithSecondaryTypes)
