Package org.eclipse.jdt.debug.eval

package org.eclipse.jdt.debug.eval

Provides a set classes and interfaces that support evaluations in the Java debugger.

Package Specification

This package defines a set of classes and interfaces that support evaluations in the Java debugger. Two evaluation engines are provided - one that performs evaluations by compiling and deploying class files locally for execution, and one that performs an interpretation over an abstract syntax tree. The later supports remote evaluation via JDI.

Class	Description
EvaluationManager	The evaluation manager provides factory methods for creating evaluation engines.
IAstEvaluationEngine	An evaluation engine that performs evaluations by interpreting abstract syntax trees.
IClassFileEvaluationEngine	An evaluation engine that performs evaluations by deploying and executing class files locally.
ICompiledExpression	A compiled expression can be compiled once and evaluated multiple times in a runtime context.
IEvaluationEngine	An evaluation engine performs an evaluation of a code snippet or expression in a specified thread of a debug target.
IEvaluationListener	Evaluation results are reported to evaluation listeners on the completion of an evaluation.
IEvaluationResult	The result of an evaluation.
