Field Details

TEXT_PROPERTY

public static final SimplePropertyDescriptor TEXT_PROPERTY

The "text" structural property of this node type (type: String).

Method Details

propertyDescriptors

public static List propertyDescriptors(int apiLevel)

Returns a list of structural property descriptors for this node type. Clients must not modify the result.

Parameters:

apiLevel - the API level; one of the AST.JLS* constants

Returns:

a list of property descriptors (element type: StructuralPropertyDescriptor)

Since:

3.0

setText

public void setText(String text)

Sets the text of this node to the given value.

The text element typically includes leading and trailing whitespace that separates it from the immediately preceding or following elements. The text element must not include a block comment closing delimiter "*"+"/".

Overrides:
