Uses of ISymbolNature in org.ek9lang.compiler.symbols

Subinterfaces of ISymbolNature in org.ek9lang.compiler.symbols

Modifier and Type	Interface	Description
interface	IAggregateSymbol	Interface for an aggregate, typically a class or something like that.
interface	ICanBeGeneric	Really a Marker interface for generic classes and generic functions.
interface	IFunctionSymbol	Interface to abstract FunctionSymbol away as concrete implementation.
interface	IScopedSymbol	For symbols that are both a pure symbol but can also define a scope.
interface	ISymbol	Represents the concept of what functionality a Symbol should have.

Classes in org.ek9lang.compiler.symbols that implement ISymbolNature

Modifier and Type	Class	Description
class	AggregateSymbol	This is typically a 'class' or an interface type where it can include the definitions of new properties.
class	AggregateWithTraitsSymbol	An aggregate, but one that can have zero or more traits (like interfaces).
class	AnyTypeSymbol	Special type that is super of Aggregate and super of Function (if they don't have supers).
class	CallSymbol	Just re-uses the bulk of method symbol for when we want to make a symbol that is a call to an actual method.
class	CaptureScopedSymbol	Just focuses on the ability to possible capture variables from an enclosing scope.
class	ConstantSymbol	A very simple type that holds a single distinct value.
class	ControlSymbol	EK9 switch/try control type symbol - this can effectively return a value if it is configured with returning part.
class	ExpressionSymbol	While we don't add these in the scoped structures when compiling.
class	ForSymbol	EK9 'for' type symbol - we need a scope because we declare a new variable as the loop variable.
class	FunctionSymbol	Scope for functions that are part of a module.
class	MethodSymbol	Represents some type of method that exists on an aggregate type scope.
class	ParamExpressionSymbol	While we don't add these in the scoped structures when compiling.
class	PossibleGenericSymbol	Added as a common symbol type for both Functions and Aggregates that could possibly be generic in nature and also be a parameterised type.
class	ScopedSymbol	Represents a symbol that also has a scope.
class	ServiceOperationSymbol	Scope for callable methods (operations) that are part of a Service.
class	StackConsistencyScope	Used when duplicate symbols are found, where we need to add a placeholder.
class	StreamCallSymbol	Just re-uses the bulk of method symbol.
class	StreamPipeLineSymbol	Intended to model the pipeline flow in a streaming of cat or for loop though | and map etc.
class	SwitchSymbol	EK9 switch statement - this can effectively return a value if it is configured with returning part.
class	Symbol	A bit of a beast.
class	TrySymbol	EK9 try statement - this can effectively return a value if it is configured with returning part.
class	VariableSymbol	Models a variable.
class	WhileSymbol	EK9 'while' or 'do/while' type symbol - we need a scope because we can declare new variables as part of the pre-flow semantics.
