Class DebugTreeAdaptor

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

Overrides: object.__init__

(inherited documentation)

Create a tree node from Token object; for CommonTree type trees, then the token just becomes the payload. This is the most common create call.

Override if you want another kind of node to be built.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.createWithPayload

(inherited documentation)

Create a new node derived from a token, with a new token type and (optionally) new text.

This is invoked from an imaginary node ref on right side of a rewrite rule as IMAG[$tokenLabel] or IMAG[$tokenLabel "IMAG"].

This should invoke createToken(Token).

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.createFromToken

(inherited documentation)

Create a new node derived from a token, with a new token type.

This is invoked from an imaginary node ref on right side of a rewrite rule as IMAG["IMAG"].

This should invoke createToken(int,String).

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.createFromType

(inherited documentation)

Return a tree node representing an error. This node records the tokens consumed during error recovery. The start token indicates the input symbol at which the error was detected. The stop token indicates the last symbol consumed during recovery.

You must specify the input stream so that the erroneous text can be packaged up in the error node. The exception could be useful to some applications; default implementation stores ptr to it in the CommonErrorNode.

This only makes sense during token parsing, not tree parsing. Tree parsing should happen only when parsing and tree construction succeed.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.errorNode

(inherited documentation)

Duplicate tree recursively, using dupNode() for each node

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.dupTree

(inherited documentation)

Duplicate a single tree node.

Override if you want another kind of node to be built.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.dupNode

(inherited documentation)

Return a nil node (an empty but non-null node) that can hold a list of element as the children. If you want a flat tree (a list) use "t=adaptor.nil(); t.addChild(x); t.addChild(y);"

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.nil

(inherited documentation)

Is tree considered a nil node used to make lists of child nodes?

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.isNil

(inherited documentation)

Add a child to the tree t. If child is a flat tree (a list), make all in list children of t. Warning: if t has no children, but child does and child isNil then you can decide it is ok to move children to t via t.children = child.children; i.e., without copying the array. Just make sure that this is consistent with have the user will build ASTs. Do nothing if t or child is null.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.addChild

(inherited documentation)

If oldRoot is a nil root, just copy or move the children to newRoot.
If not a nil root, make oldRoot a child of newRoot.

   old=^(nil a b c), new=r yields ^(r a b c)
   old=^(a b c), new=r yields ^(r ^(a b c))

If newRoot is a nil-rooted single child tree, use the single
child as the new root node.

   old=^(nil a b c), new=^(nil r) yields ^(r a b c)
   old=^(a b c), new=^(nil r) yields ^(r ^(a b c))

If oldRoot was null, it's ok, just return newRoot (even if isNil).

   old=null, new=r yields r
   old=null, new=^(nil r) yields ^(nil r)

Return newRoot.  Throw an exception if newRoot is not a
simple node or nil root with a single child node--it must be a root
node.  If newRoot is ^(nil x) return x as newRoot.

Be advised that it's ok for newRoot to point at oldRoot's
children; i.e., you don't have to copy the list.  We are
constructing these nodes so we should have this control for
efficiency.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.becomeRoot

(inherited documentation)

Given the root of the subtree created for this rule, post process it to do any simplifications or whatever you want. A required behavior is to convert ^(nil singleSubtree) to singleSubtree as the setting of start/stop indexes relies on a single non-nil root for non-flat trees.

Flat trees such as for lists like "idlist : ID+ ;" are left alone unless there is only one ID. For a list, the start/stop indexes are set in the nil node.

This method is executed after all rule tree construction and right before setTokenBoundaries().

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.rulePostProcessing

(inherited documentation)

For tree parsing, I need to know the token type of a node

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getType

(inherited documentation)

Node constructors can set the type of a node

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.setType

(inherited documentation)

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getText

Node constructors can set the text of a node

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.setText

(inherited documentation)

Return the token object from which this node was created.

Currently used only for printing an error message. The error display routine in BaseRecognizer needs to display where the input the error occurred. If your tree of limitation does not store information that can lead you to the token, you can create a token filled with the appropriate information and pass that back. See BaseRecognizer.getErrorMessage().

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getToken

(inherited documentation)

Where are the bounds in the input token stream for this node and all children? Each rule that creates AST nodes will call this method right before returning. Flat trees (i.e., lists) will still usually have a nil root node just to hold the children list. That node would contain the start/stop indexes then.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.setTokenBoundaries

(inherited documentation)

Get the token start index for this subtree; return -1 if no such index

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getTokenStartIndex

(inherited documentation)

Get the token stop index for this subtree; return -1 if no such index

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getTokenStopIndex

(inherited documentation)

Get a child 0..n-1 node

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getChild

(inherited documentation)

Set ith child (0..n-1) to t; t must be non-null and non-nil node

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.setChild

(inherited documentation)

Remove ith child and shift children down from right.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.deleteChild

(inherited documentation)

How many children? If 0, then this is a leaf node

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getChildCount

(inherited documentation)

For identifying trees.

How to identify nodes so we can say "add node to a prior node"? Even becomeRoot is an issue. Use System.identityHashCode(node) usually.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getUniqueID

(inherited documentation)

Who is the parent node of this node; if null, implies node is root. If your node type doesn't handle this, it's ok but the tree rewrites in tree parsers need this functionality.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getParent

(inherited documentation)

What index is this node in the child list? Range: 0..n-1 If your node type doesn't handle this, it's ok but the tree rewrites in tree parsers need this functionality.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.getChildIndex

(inherited documentation)

Who is the parent node of this node; if null, implies node is root. If your node type doesn't handle this, it's ok but the tree rewrites in tree parsers need this functionality.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.setParent

(inherited documentation)

What index is this node in the child list? Range: 0..n-1 If your node type doesn't handle this, it's ok but the tree rewrites in tree parsers need this functionality.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.setChildIndex

(inherited documentation)

Replace from start to stop child index of parent with t, which might be a list. Number of children may be different after this call.

If parent is null, don't do anything; must be at root of overall tree. Can't replace whatever points to the parent externally. Do nothing.

Overrides: tree.TreeAdaptor.replaceChildren
