Class
object ready for use with
java.lang.reflect.
Example:
import java.util.*; static private int a = 1; private int b = 2; public void func(int c, int d) { return func2(c, d); } private static void func2(int e, int f) { return e * f; }
To set up an IClassBodyEvaluator
object, proceed as follows:
-
Create an
IClassBodyEvaluator
-implementing class. -
Configure the
IClassBodyEvaluator
by calling any of the following methods: -
Call any of the
ICookable.cook(String, java.io.Reader)
methods to scan, parse, compile and load the class body into the JVM.
createInstance(Reader)
methods can be
used.
The generated class may optionally extend/implement a given type; the returned instance can
safely be type-casted to that optionalBaseType
.
Example:
public interface Foo { int bar(int a, int b); } ...IClassBodyEvaluator
cbe =CompilerFactoryFactory
.getDefaultCompilerFactory
().newClassBodyEvaluator
(); Foo f = (Foo) ClassBodyEvaluator.createFastClassBodyEvaluator( new Scanner(null, new StringReader("public int bar(int a, int b) { return a + b; }")), Foo.class, // Base type to extend/implement (ClassLoader) null // Use current thread's context class loader ); System.out.println("1 + 2 = " + f.bar(1, 2));

setDefaultImports
"Default imports" add to the system import "java.lang", i.e. the evaluator may refer to classes imported by default imports without having to explicitly declare IMPORT statements.Notice that JDK 5 "static imports" are also supported, as shown in the following example.
Example:
sc.setDefaultImports(new String[] { "java.util.Map", // Single type import "java.io.*", // Type-import-on-demand "static java.util.Collections.EMPTY_MAP", // Single static import "static java.util.Collections.*", // Static-import-on-demand });
-
setClassName
Set the name of the generated class. Defaults toDEFAULT_CLASS_NAME
. In most cases, there is no need to set this name, because the generated class is loaded into its ownClassLoader
where its name cannot collide with classes generated by other evaluators.One reason to use this function is to have a class name in a non-default package, which can be relevant when types and members with DEFAULT accessibility are accessed.
-
setExtendedClass
Set a particular superclass that the generated class will extend. Ifnull
is passed, the generated class will extendObject
.The common reason to set a base class for an evaluator is that the generated class can directly access the base superclass's (non-private) members.
-
setExtendedType
Deprecated.UsesetExtendedClass(Class)
instead. -
setImplementedInterfaces
Set a particular set of interfaces that the generated class will implement. -
setImplementedTypes
Deprecated.UsesetImplementedInterfaces(Class[])
instead. -
getClazz
Class getClazz()Returns the loadedClass
.This method must only be called after exactly one of the
ICookable.cook(String, java.io.Reader)
methods was called. -
createInstance
Scans, parses and compiles a class body from the tokens delivered by the the givenReader
, then creates and returns an instance of that class.- Parameters:
reader
- Source of class body tokens- Returns:
- An object that extends the
optionalExtendedType
and implements the givenimplementedTypes
- Throws:
CompileException
IOException
