MetaMethod getMetaMethod()

Expression getMethod()

String getMethodAsString()

This method returns the method name as String if it is no dynamic calculated method name, but a constant.

Expression getObjectExpression()

String getText()

boolean isImplicitThis()

some expression was specified for the object on which to evaluate the method then return false

boolean isSafe()

then this method call will return null rather than throwing a null pointer exception

boolean isSpreadSafe()

void setArguments(Expression arguments)

void setImplicitThis(boolean implicitThis)
