Class NestingDepthCounter

java.lang.Object
org.ek9lang.compiler.phase5.NestingDepthCounter
class NestingDepthCounter extends Object
Tracks nesting depth within functions/methods/operators. Increments on entering control structures (if, while, for, switch, try, etc.), decrements on exit. Records maximum depth reached per function scope. This is used to enforce nesting depth limits, preventing deeply nested code that becomes hard to read and maintain.
