Method Detail

copy

public Expression copy()

Creates a copy of the expression. The new expression will not have an owner.

Specified by:

copy in interface Expression

Returns:

A copy of the expression.

getText

public String getText()

Gets the expression text.

Specified by:

getText in interface Expression

setText

public void setText(String value)

Sets the expression text.

Specified by:

setText in interface Expression

getNormalization

public TableExpressionNormalization getNormalization()

Gets of sets the normalization method, if any, to use once the Table values have been generated, but before assignment to a node.

setNormalization

public void setNormalization(TableExpressionNormalization value)

Gets of sets the normalization method, if any, to use once the Table values have been generated, but before assignment to a node.

getOwner

public Node getOwner()

Gets the current owner, if assigned to a node. An expression cannot be modified when it is assigned to a node.

Specified by:

getOwner in interface DistributionExpression

getReturnType

public ExpressionReturnType getReturnType()

Gets the return type of the expression.

Specified by:

getReturnType in interface Expression

setReturnType

public void setReturnType(ExpressionReturnType value)
