Class InternalNameFor

java.lang.Object

org.ek9lang.compiler.support.InternalNameFor

All Implemented Interfaces:

BiFunction<PossibleGenericSymbol, List<ISymbol>, String>

public class InternalNameFor
extends Object
implements BiFunction<PossibleGenericSymbol, List<ISymbol>, String>

Given some sort of generic type a function or a type with a set of 'type parameters', create a unique internal name for that combination. So this is not a UUID, type operation. But it means when we need to look up a 'org.ek9.lang::List or org.ek9.lang::String' if we have that Generic type already parameterised and recorded - we can just re-use it. This always uses fully qualified type names and then 'digests' that to produce a SHA256 hash. This is highly unlikely to ever collide with another combination of generic types and parameters.
