Packages that use org.ek9lang.compiler.support

Package	Description
org.ek9lang.compiler.common	Common parts of processing that can be reused across various phases.
org.ek9lang.compiler.phase2	F - Resolution of Explicitly Defined Type Symbols - at this point phase3 processing should have defined most of the explicitly defined symbols, so they should be resolvable.
org.ek9lang.compiler.phase3	G - Full Symbol Resolution can now take place.
org.ek9lang.compiler.phase5	I - PRE Intermediate Representation generation checks.
org.ek9lang.compiler.phase7	K - Intermediate Representation Generation.
org.ek9lang.compiler.phase7.generation
org.ek9lang.compiler.support	Contains critical general components used in the Ek9Compiler listeners.
org.ek9lang.compiler.symbols	This is the main source of EK9 Symbols used within the compiler.

Classes in org.ek9lang.compiler.support used by org.ek9lang.compiler.common

Class	Description
SymbolChecker	General utility class that searches in a scope for a symbol to check for duplicates.
SymbolFactory	Just a factory for all types of EK9 symbol.
SymbolSearchConfiguration	Can be used for a single Simple named search.

Classes in org.ek9lang.compiler.support used by org.ek9lang.compiler.phase2

Class	Description
AggregateManipulator	Support for taking one aggregate and manipulating the methods and the like to be applied to another aggregate.
SymbolFactory	Just a factory for all types of EK9 symbol.

Classes in org.ek9lang.compiler.support used by org.ek9lang.compiler.phase3

Class	Description
AggregateManipulator	Support for taking one aggregate and manipulating the methods and the like to be applied to another aggregate.
CheckReturns	Ensures that a try statement/expression is used correctly in or out of an expression.
CommonValues	Fixed set of constants that tend to be used to 'squirrel' away data - these are the keys.
ReferenceAssignment	THE reading of a statement that makes a local variable (never a property) refer to the SAME object an expression evaluates to - a reference copy (an alias), never a value copy.
SymbolFactory	Just a factory for all types of EK9 symbol.

Classes in org.ek9lang.compiler.support used by org.ek9lang.compiler.phase5

Class	Description
CommonValues	Fixed set of constants that tend to be used to 'squirrel' away data - these are the keys.
ReferenceAssignment	THE reading of a statement that makes a local variable (never a property) refer to the SAME object an expression evaluates to - a reference copy (an alias), never a value copy.
StronglyConnectedComponents.Component	One strongly connected component.

Classes in org.ek9lang.compiler.support used by org.ek9lang.compiler.phase7

Class	Description
NotImplicitSuper	THE single predicate for "does this super type need an EK9-style super-init call emitted by the IR?".

Classes in org.ek9lang.compiler.support used by org.ek9lang.compiler.phase7.generation

Class	Description
PositionalConceptualLookupMapping.Mapping	Just holds a simple set of lists with the appropriate type arguments and their corresponding parameterizing parameters.

Class	Description
AggregateManipulator	Support for taking one aggregate and manipulating the methods and the like to be applied to another aggregate.
AggregateMemberOrder.OutOfOrder	The first member of a body out of order.
CloseSteps.Steps	What a type's close closes, and the parent close it then calls.
CommonFactory	Just for details that are common to all factories.
CommonTypeDeterminationDetails	For use when looking to find common types.
CommonTypeMode	Which common type CommonTypeOrError is asked for.
CommonValues	Fixed set of constants that tend to be used to 'squirrel' away data - these are the keys.
CompileTimeConstraintEvaluator.Verdict	PASS = constraint satisfied; FAIL = provably violated; UNKNOWN = cannot determine statically.
ConstructionSteps	THE steps a constructor of an aggregate takes before its own body - use this wherever those steps are generated or modelled, so the generated code and the phase-5 call graph cannot disagree about what construction runs.
ConstructTypeReferences.TypeReference	One signature-level type reference: the relationship kind and the (raw) referenced type.
DefaultedComparisonDelegate.Resolver	See DefaultedComparisonDelegate.forAggregate(IAggregateSymbol, ISymbol).
DispatcherWinner.Selection	A winning handler and the assignment cost it won at.
GenericInGenericData	Used to model the scenario where a generic type has another dependent generic type used within it.
InternalNameDetails	Holds the details for creating and internal 'decorated name' for a generic type that has been parameterised.
IsFreshValueExpression	THE "fresh value" predicate: true iff an expression evaluates to a NEW object - one nothing else holds a reference to.
IsMutexLockType	Predicate that returns true iff the symbol IS the org.ek9.lang::MutexLock generic type itself, or a parameterised form of it (e.g.
MetricLimit	A single enforced quality/architecture metric limit, self-describing enough that BOTH the phase-5 checker that fires the error AND the MCP/IDE enquiry layer that reports headroom can read it from the one place — see MetricLimits for the registry and the rationale.
MetricLimit.Comparison	How a measured value is compared against the limit.
MetricLimit.CompoundLimit	A compound limit that fires only when an absolute cap AND a relative ratio are BOTH exceeded, and only once the module is at least minConstructs in size (small modules are naturally disconnected and are exempt).
MetricLimit.GenusLimit	A per-genus threshold table: byGenus holds explicit limits, fallback covers genera not listed, and exempt genera are not checked at all (so MetricLimit.GenusLimit.limitFor(SymbolGenus) is empty and MetricLimit.GenusLimit.isOver(int, SymbolGenus) is always false for them).
MetricLimit.RatioLimit	A gate on a fractional score rather than a count — E11020 multiplies a construct's complexity ratio by its statement ratio and fires above 0.50, so neither operand is a limit in its own right and the threshold cannot be an int.
MetricLimit.ScalarLimit	A single-threshold limit with a comparator.
MustExecutePosition	THE answer to "does this code run every time its enclosing body runs?", read from its position in the parse tree.
NonDescriptiveNames.Group	One group of banned names with what is published about it.
ParameterisedTypeData	To be used when trying to define/resolve a parameterised type.
PositionalConceptualLookupMapping.Mapping	Just holds a simple set of lists with the appropriate type arguments and their corresponding parameterizing parameters.
PropertyInitialiser	THE answer to "is this node inside a property's initialiser, and which properties of that type are set by then?" Use this wherever a check depends on a property initialiser - do not re-walk the tree for it.
RecordedSymbols.Reference	One identifier occurrence the compiler bound to a symbol.
ReferenceAssignment	THE reading of a statement that makes a local variable (never a property) refer to the SAME object an expression evaluates to - a reference copy (an alias), never a value copy.
ResolveOrDefineTypes	This is a sort of hybrid resolver or definer function.
ResolverOrDefiner	Used as an abstract base for parameterised types.
SelfReferenceStore.CaptureAssignment	A statement that gives one of the object's own properties a dynamic function or class capturing 'this'.
StreamStages.Boundedness	The outcome of walking a pipeline's stages from a source that is not bounded.
StronglyConnectedComponents.Component	One strongly connected component.
SymbolFactory	Just a factory for all types of EK9 symbol.
SymbolSearchConfiguration	Can be used for a single Simple named search.
SymbolWrites.Write	One write.
