All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<CompilePhase>

public enum CompilePhase
extends Enum<CompilePhase>

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 and 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

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

phases

public static CompilePhase[] phases

The phases as an array, with a null entry.

Method Detail

values

public static CompilePhase[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (CompilePhase c : CompilePhase.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static CompilePhase valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getPhaseNumber

public int getPhaseNumber()

Returns the underlieng integer Phase number.
