Method Details

getCost

@Deprecated
public NodeCost getCost()

Deprecated.

in 24.1 without replacement

Returns a rough estimate for the cost of this Node. This estimate can be used by runtime systems or guest languages to implement heuristics based on Truffle ASTs. This method is intended to be overridden by subclasses. The default implementation returns the value of NodeInfo.cost() of the NodeInfo annotation declared at the subclass. If no NodeInfo annotation is declared the method returns NodeCost.MONOMORPHIC as a default value.

Since:

0.8 or earlier

getSourceSection

public SourceSection getSourceSection()

Retrieves the segment of guest language source code that is represented by this Node. The default implementation of this method returns null. If your node represents a segment of the source code, override this method and return a eagerly or lazily computed source section value. This method is not designed to be invoked on compiled code paths. May be called on any thread and without a language context being active.

Simple example implementation using a simple implementation using a field:

abstract class SimpleNode extends Node {

    private SourceSection sourceSection;

    void setSourceSection(SourceSection sourceSection) {
        this.sourceSection = sourceSection;
    }

    @Override
    public SourceSection getSourceSection() {
        return sourceSection;
    }
}

Recommended implementation computing the source section lazily from primitive fields:

abstract class RecommendedNode extends Node {

    private static final int NO_SOURCE = -1;

    private int sourceCharIndex = NO_SOURCE;
    private int sourceLength;

    public abstract Object execute(VirtualFrame frame);

    // invoked by the parser to set the source
    void setSourceSection(int charIndex, int length) {
        assert sourceCharIndex == NO_SOURCE : "source should only be set once";
        this.sourceCharIndex = charIndex;
        this.sourceLength = length;
    }

    @Override
    public final SourceSection getSourceSection() {
        if (sourceCharIndex == NO_SOURCE) {
            // AST node without source
            return null;
        }
        RootNode rootNode = getRootNode();
        if (rootNode == null) {
            // not yet adopted yet
            return null;
        }
        Source source = rootNode.getSourceSection().getSource();
        return source.createSection(sourceCharIndex, sourceLength);
    }

}

Returns:

the source code represented by this Node

Since:

0.8 or earlier

getEncapsulatingSourceSection

public SourceSection getEncapsulatingSourceSection()

Retrieves the segment of guest language source code that is represented by this Node, if present; otherwise retrieves the segment represented by the nearest AST ancestor that has this information. Can be called on any thread and without a language context.

Returns:

an approximation of the source code represented by this Node

Since:

0.8 or earlier

isAdoptable

public boolean isAdoptable()

Returns true if this node can be adopted by a parent. This method is intended to be overriden by subclasses. If nodes need to be statically shared that they must not be adoptable, because otherwise the parent reference might cause a memory leak. If a node is not adoptable then then it is guaranteed that the parent pointer remains null at all times, even if the node is tried to be adopted by a parent.

If the result of this method is statically known then it is recommended to make the node implement UnadoptableNode instead.

Implementations of isAdoptable() are required to fold to a constant result when compiled with a constant receiver.

Since:

19.0

insert

public final <T extends Node> T[] insert(T[] newChildren)

Inserts new node children into an AST that was already adopted by a parent. The new children need to be assigned to its children field after insert was called.

Parameters:

newChildren - the array of new children whose parent should be updated

Returns:

the array of new children

Since:

0.8 or earlier

insert

public final <T extends Node> T insert(T newChild)

Inserts an new node into an AST that was already adopted by a parent. The new child needs to be assigned to its child field after insert was called.

Parameters:

newChild - the new child whose parent should be updated

Returns:

the new child

Since:

0.8 or earlier

notifyInserted

protected final void notifyInserted(Node node)

Notifies the framework about the insertion of one or more nodes during execution. Otherwise, the framework assumes that instrumentable nodes remain unchanged after their root node is first executed. Insertions don't need to be notified if it is known that none of the inserted nodes are instrumentable.

The provided Node and its children must be adopted in the AST before invoking this method. The caller must ensure that this method is invoked only once for a given node and its children.

class MyRootNode extends RootNode {

    protected MyRootNode(MyLanguage language) {
        super(language);
    }

    @Child InstrumentableLanguageNode child;

    @Override
    public Object execute(VirtualFrame frame) {
        if (child == null) {
            CompilerDirectives.transferToInterpreterAndInvalidate();
            child = insert(new InstrumentableLanguageNode());
            notifyInserted(child);
        }
        return child.execute(frame);
    }

}

Parameters:

node - the node tree that got inserted.

Returns:

the properties as a key/value hash map

Since:

0.8 or earlier

getParent

public final Node getParent()

The current parent node of this node.

Returns:

the parent node

Since:

0.8 or earlier

replace

public final <T extends Node> T replace(T newNode,
 CharSequence reason)

Replaces this node with another node. If there is a source section (see getSourceSection()) associated with this node, it is transferred to the new node.

reason - a description of the reason for the replacement

Returns:

the new node

Since:

0.8 or earlier

replace

public final <T extends Node> T replace(T newNode)

Parameters:

newNode - the new node that is the replacement

Returns:

the new node

Since:

isSafelyReplaceableBy

public final boolean isSafelyReplaceableBy(Node newNode)

onReplace

protected void onReplace(Node newNode,
 CharSequence reason)

Intended to be implemented by subclasses of Node to receive a notification when the node is rewritten. This method is invoked before the actual replace has happened.

reportPolymorphicSpecialize

public final void reportPolymorphicSpecialize()

Notifies the runtime that this node specialized to a polymorphic state. This includes specializations that increase "level" of polymorphism (e.g. Adding another element to an existing inline cache).
