Method Detail

escape

public static CharLiteralExpr escape(String string)

Utility method that creates a new StringLiteralExpr. Escapes EOL characters.

accept

public <R,A> R accept(GenericVisitor<R,A> v,
                      A arg)

Description copied from interface: Visitable

Accept method for visitor support.

Type Parameters:

R - the type of the return value of the visitor

A - the type the user argument passed to the visitor

Parameters:

v - the visitor implementation

arg - the argument passed to the visitor (of type A)

Returns:

the result of the visit (of type R)

accept

public <A> void accept(VoidVisitor<A> v,
                       A arg)

Description copied from interface: Visitable

Accept method for visitor support.

Type Parameters:

A - the type the argument passed for the visitor

Parameters:
