Method Detail

getType

ClassNode getType()

the type of the variable

getOriginType

ClassNode getOriginType()

the type before wrapping primitives type of the variable

getName

String getName()

the name of the variable

getInitialExpression

Expression getInitialExpression()

expression used to initialize the variable or null of there is no initialization.

hasInitialExpression

boolean hasInitialExpression()

returns true if there is an initialization expression

isInStaticContext

boolean isInStaticContext()

returns true if this variable is used in a static context. A static context is any static initializer block, when this variable is declared as static or when this variable is used in a static method

isDynamicTyped

boolean isDynamicTyped()

isClosureSharedVariable

boolean isClosureSharedVariable()

setClosureSharedVariable

void setClosureSharedVariable(boolean inClosure)
