The phases of the GroovyCompiler. This is an enum facade on top of the Phases object. In general, prefer using this object over Phases.
Enum constant | Description |
---|---|
CANONICALIZATION |
Complete building the AST |
CLASS_GENERATION |
creates the binary output in memory |
CONVERSION |
An abstract syntax tree (AST) is created from token trees |
FINALIZATION |
Perform any last cleanup |
INITIALIZATION |
source files are opened and environment configured |
INSTRUCTION_SELECTION |
instruction set is chosen, for example java5 or pre java5 |
OUTPUT |
write the binary output to the file system |
PARSING |
the grammar is used to to produce tree of tokens representing the source code |
SEMANTIC_ANALYSIS |
Performs consistency and validity checks that the grammar can't check for, and resolves classes |
Modifiers | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
static CompilePhase[] |
phases |
The phases as an array, with a null entry. |
