Property Detail

• private final Groovysh shell

Constructor Detail

• ReflectionCompletor(Groovysh shell)

  Parameters:

  shell

  metaclass_completion_prefix_length - how long the prefix must be to display candidates from metaclass

• ReflectionCompletor()

Method Detail

• static boolean acceptName(String name, String prefix)

• int complete(List tokens, List candidates)

• static List getDefaultMethods(Object instance, String prefix)

  Offering all DefaultGroovyMethods on any object is too verbose, hiding all removes user-friendliness. So here util methods will be added to candidates if the instance is of a suitable type. This does not need to be strictly complete, only the most useful functions may appear.

• static CharSequence getFieldnameForAccessor(String accessor, int parameterLength)

• Object getInvokerClassOrInstance(List groovySourceTokens)

  Takes the last ? tokens of the list that form a simple expression, evaluates it and returns a result. "Simple" means evaluation is known to be side-effect free.

• static List getInvokerTokens(List groovySourceTokens)

  return the last tokens of a list that form an expression to be completed after the next dot, or null if expression cannot be detected. This discards Expressions that could easily have side effects or be long in evaluation. However it assumes that operators can be evaluated without side-effect or long running operation. Users who use operators for which this does not hold should not use tab completion.

  Returns:

  Parameters:

  groovySourceTokens

• static Collection getMetaclassMethods(Object instance, String prefix, boolean includeMetaClassImplMethods)

• static Collection getPublicFieldsAndMethods(Object instance, String prefix)

  Build a list of public fields and methods for an object that match a given prefix.

  Parameters:

  instance - the object

  prefix - the prefix that must be matched

  Returns:

  the list of public methods and fields that begin with the prefix

• static Object removeStandardMethods(Collection candidates)

  removes candidates that, most of the times, a programmer does not want to see in completion

  Parameters:

  candidates

• static String tokenListToEvalString(List groovySourceTokens)
