Class SymbolReference

software.amazon.smithy.codegen.core.SymbolReference

All Implemented Interfaces:

SymbolContainer, SymbolDependencyContainer, ToSmithyBuilder<SymbolReference>

public final class SymbolReference
extends java.lang.Object
implements SymbolContainer, SymbolDependencyContainer, ToSmithyBuilder<SymbolReference>

Represents a reference from a Symbol to another Symbol.

A reference from one symbol to another is used when a symbol definition refers to other symbols (for example, when using things like generic type parameters) or when using a symbol that has generic type parameters in its signature. References can contain arbitrary properties that can be accessed using getProperties(), getProperty(java.lang.String), and expectProperty(java.lang.String). Options can be added to a SymbolReference to give more context about the reference. For example, the SymbolReference.ContextOption enum is used to define the context in which a reference is relevant (e.g., only when defining a symbol vs only when using/importing a symbol). If no options are provided when creating a SymbolReference, the reference defaults to using both the SymbolReference.ContextOption.DECLARE and SymbolReference.ContextOption.USE options, meaning that the reference is necessary both when defining and when using a symbol.

Constructor Detail

SymbolReference

public SymbolReference(Symbol symbol,
                       SymbolReference.Option... options)

Parameters:

symbol - Symbol that is referenced.

options - Options to store with the reference.

SymbolReference

public SymbolReference(Symbol symbol,
                       java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> properties,
                       SymbolReference.Option... options)

Parameters:

symbol - Symbol that is referenced.

properties - Bag of reference properties.

options - Options to store with the reference.

Method Detail

builder

public static SymbolReference.Builder builder()

Returns:

Returns a new builder.

getSymbol

public Symbol getSymbol()

Gets the referenced symbol.

Returns:

Returns the symbol.

getAlias

public java.lang.String getAlias()

Gets the alias to use when referring to the Symbol.

The value of getSymbol().getName() is returned if no alias was explicitly configured on the reference.

An alias is used in some programming languages to change the way a symbol is referenced in a source file. Aliases are often used for de-conflicting symbols.

Returns:

Returns the alias.

getOptions

public java.util.Set<SymbolReference.Option> getOptions()

Gets all of the reference options.

Returns:

Returns the options set.

hasOption

public boolean hasOption(SymbolReference.Option option)

Checks if the given option is set on the symbol.

Parameters:

option - Option to check.

Returns:

Returns true if this option is set.

getSymbols

public java.util.List<Symbol> getSymbols()

Description copied from interface: SymbolContainer

Returns any Symbol objects contained in the object.

Specified by:

getSymbols in interface SymbolContainer

Returns:

Returns a collection of Symbols.

getDependencies

public java.util.List<SymbolDependency> getDependencies()

Description copied from interface: SymbolDependencyContainer

Gets the list of dependencies that this object introduces.

A dependency is a dependency on another package that a Symbol or type requires. It is quite different from a reference since a reference only refers to a symbol; a reference provides no context as to whether or not a dependency is required or the dependency's coordinates.

Specified by:

getDependencies in interface SymbolDependencyContainer

Returns:

Returns the dependencies.

toBuilder

public SymbolReference.Builder toBuilder()

Description copied from interface: ToSmithyBuilder

Take this object and create a builder that contains all of the current property values of this object.

Specified by:

toBuilder in interface ToSmithyBuilder<SymbolReference>

Returns:

a builder for type T

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

hashCode

public int hashCode()

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

getProperties

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> getProperties()

Gets the additional properties of the object.

Returns:

Returns a map of additional property strings.

getTypedProperties

public java.util.Map<Property<?>,java.lang.Object> getTypedProperties()

Gets the additional typed properties of the object.

Returns:

Returns a map of additional typed properties.

getProperty

public java.util.Optional<java.lang.Object> getProperty(java.lang.String name)

Gets a specific property if present.

Get a typed property if present.

Type Parameters:

Parameters:

property - property key to get by exact reference identity.

Returns:

Returns the optionally found property.

getProperty

public <T> java.util.Optional<T> getProperty(java.lang.String name,
                                             java.lang.Class<T> type)

Gets an additional property of a specific type.

Type Parameters:

T - Type of value to expect.

Parameters:

name - Name of the property to get.

type - Type of value to expect.

Returns:

Returns a map of additional property strings.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the value is not of the given type.

expectProperty

public java.lang.Object expectProperty(java.lang.String name)

Gets a specific additional property or throws if missing.

Parameters:

name - Property to retrieve.

Returns:

Returns the found property.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the property is not present.

expectProperty

public <T> T expectProperty(java.lang.String name,
                            java.lang.Class<T> type)

Gets a specific additional property or throws if missing or if the property is not an instance of the given type.

Type Parameters:
