Class SimpleTypeVisitor6<R,​P>

Type Parameters:
R - the return type of this visitor's methods. Use Void for visitors that do not need to return results.
P - the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's methods. Use Void for visitors that do not need an additional parameter.
All Implemented Interfaces:
TypeVisitor<R,​P>
Direct Known Subclasses:
SimpleTypeVisitor7, TypeKindVisitor6 
@SupportedSourceVersion(RELEASE_6)
public class SimpleTypeVisitor6<R,​P>
extends AbstractTypeVisitor6<R,​P>

A simple visitor of types with default behavior appropriate for the RELEASE_6 source version. Visit methods corresponding to RELEASE_6 language constructs call defaultAction, passing their arguments to defaultAction's corresponding parameters. For constructs introduced in RELEASE_7 and later, visitUnknown is called instead.

Methods in this class may be overridden subject to their general contract. Note that annotating methods in concrete subclasses with @Override will help ensure that methods are overridden as intended.

WARNING: The TypeVisitor interface implemented by this class may have methods added to it in the future to accommodate new, currently unknown, language structures added to future versions of the Java™ programming language. Therefore, methods whose names begin with "visit" may be added to this class in the future; to avoid incompatibilities, classes which extend this class should not declare any instance methods with names beginning with "visit".

When such a new visit method is added, the default implementation in this class will be to call the visitUnknown method. A new simple type visitor class will also be introduced to correspond to the new language level; this visitor will have different default behavior for the visit method in question. When the new visitor is introduced, all or portions of this visitor may be deprecated.

Constructor Detail

SimpleTypeVisitor6

@Deprecated(since="9")
protected SimpleTypeVisitor6()
Deprecated.
Release 6 is obsolete; update to a visitor for a newer release level.

Constructor for concrete subclasses; uses null for the default value.

SimpleTypeVisitor6

@Deprecated(since="9")
protected SimpleTypeVisitor6​(R defaultValue)
Deprecated.
Release 6 is obsolete; update to a visitor for a newer release level.

Constructor for concrete subclasses; uses the argument for the default value.

Parameters:
defaultValue - the value to assign to DEFAULT_VALUE

Method Detail

defaultAction

protected R defaultAction​(TypeMirror e,
                          P p)

The default action for visit methods.

Implementation Requirements:
The implementation in this class just returns DEFAULT_VALUE; subclasses will commonly override this method.
Parameters:
e - the type to process
p - a visitor-specified parameter
Returns:
DEFAULT_VALUE unless overridden

visitPrimitive

public R visitPrimitive​(PrimitiveType t,
                        P p)

Visits a primitive type.

Implementation Requirements:
This implementation calls defaultAction.
Parameters:
t - the type to visit
p - a visitor-specified parameter
Returns:
the result of defaultAction

visitNull

public R visitNull​(NullType t,
                   P p)

Visits the null type. This implementation calls defaultAction.

Implementation Requirements:
This implementation calls defaultAction.
Parameters:
t - the type to visit
p - a visitor-specified parameter
Returns:
the result of defaultAction

visitArray

public R visitArray​(ArrayType t,
                    P p)

Visits an array type.

Implementation Requirements:
This implementation calls defaultAction.
Parameters:
t - the type to visit
p - a visitor-specified parameter
Returns:
the result of defaultAction

visitDeclared

public R visitDeclared​(DeclaredType t,
                       P p)

Visits a declared type.

Implementation Requirements:
This implementation calls defaultAction.
Parameters:
t - the type to visit
p - a visitor-specified parameter
Returns:
the result of defaultAction

visitError

public R visitError​(ErrorType t,
                    P p)

the result of defaultAction

visitTypeVariable

public R visitTypeVariable​(TypeVariable t,
                           P p)
