Class EntitySelectionExpressionParser

java.lang.Object

eu.cqse.check.framework.shallowparser.util.EntitySelectionExpressionParser

public class EntitySelectionExpressionParser
extends java.lang.Object

Parses expressions for selecting ShallowEntitys from a parse tree. The expressions may be formed by '&', '|', '!', parentheses, and all predicates defined in EntitySelectionPredicates (i.e. you can use all public methods defined there without respect of case). Predicates may contain additional underscores and dashes to improve readability, so 'simpleGetter', 'simplegetter', 'simple_getter' and 'simple-getter' would all be treated the same. An example for an expression that matches all public attributes and methods, but no simple setters/getter and no methods annotated with '@Override' would be

     public & (attribute | method) & !(simple-getter | simple-setter | annotated(override))
