  • Field Details

    • CONTROLLER_EXP

      static final ASTNodeProperty CONTROLLER_EXP
      CONTROLLER_EXP represents the relationship between an IASTSwitchStatement and it's nested IASTExpression.

    • BODY

      static final ASTNodeProperty BODY
      BODY represents the relationship between an IASTSwitchStatement and it's nested IASTStatement.

  • Method Details

    • getControllerExpression

      IASTExpression getControllerExpression()
      This returns the expression which determines which case to take.
      Returns:
      the controller expression

    • setControllerExpression

      void setControllerExpression(IASTExpression controller)
      Set the controlling expression for the switch.
      Parameters:
      controller - IASTExpression

    • getBody

      IASTStatement getBody()
      Returns the body of the switch statement. TODO - finding the cases could be a logical thing
      Returns:
      IASTStatement

    • setBody

      void setBody(IASTStatement body)
      Set the body for the switch statement.
      Parameters:
      body - IASTStatement

    • copy

      IASTSwitchStatement copy()
      Description copied from interface: IASTNode
      Returns a mutable copy of the tree rooted at this node. The following postconditions hold: 
       copy.getParent() == null
 copy.getPropertyInParent() == null
 copy.isFrozen() == false
      Preprocessor nodes do not currently support being copied. Implicit name nodes are not copied, instead they can be regenerated if required.

      Calling this method is equivalent to copy(CopyStyle.withoutLocations).
