  • public class ExpressionVisitors
    extends java.lang.Object
    Utils for traversing expressions.
    • Method Detail

      • visit

        public static <R> R visit​(Expression expr,
                                  ExpressionVisitors.ExpressionVisitor<R> visitor)
        Traverses the given expression with a visitor.

        The visitor will be called to handle each node in the expression tree in postfix order. Result values produced by child nodes are passed when parent nodes are handled.

        Type Parameters:
        R - the return type produced by the expression visitor
        Parameters:
        expr - an expression to traverse
        visitor - a visitor that will be called to handle each node in the expression tree
        Returns:
        the value returned by the visitor for the root expression node
      • visitEvaluator

        public static java.lang.Boolean visitEvaluator​(Expression expr,
                                                       ExpressionVisitors.ExpressionVisitor<java.lang.Boolean> visitor)
        Traverses the given expression with a visitor.

        The visitor will be called to handle only nodes required for determining result in the expression tree in postfix order. Result values produced by child nodes are passed when parent nodes are handled.

        Parameters:
        expr - an expression to traverse
        visitor - a visitor that will be called to handle each node in the expression tree
        Returns:
        the value returned by the visitor for the root expression node
