Constructor Detail

ExceptionDecl

public ExceptionDecl(java.lang.String name,
                     Type type)
The type parameter is the type of the parameter to the exception. This reuses the type field because the exception has no type.

Method Detail

visit

public void visit(Predicate p)
Description copied from class: Node
Process a node by calling its associated routine. See the "visitor" design pattern in Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software by E. Gamma, et al, Addison Wesley, ISBN 0-201-63361-2.

Each class has a visit(Predicate p) method. For example, in class ABC:

   public void visit(Predicate p)
   {
     p.visitABC(this);
   }
 
and the class that implements Predicate has a method
   public void visitABC(Node n)
   {
     ABC a = (ABC) n;
     ...
   }
 
Thus, the class that implements Predicate can call
   n.visit(this);
 
where n is a Node sub-class without determining which specific sub-class n is. The visit pattern basically avoids implementing a large switch statement or defining different methods in each class for some purpose.

Overrides:
visit in class Declaration
