StringConstantExpressionAst Class

Definition

The ast that represents a constant string expression that is always constant. This includes both single and double quoted strings, but the double quoted strings will not be scanned for variable references and sub-expressions. If expansion of the string is required, use ExpandableStringExpressionAst.

Constructors

StringConstantExpressionAst(IScriptExtent, String, StringConstantType)

Construct a string constant expression.

Properties

Extent

The extent in the source this ast represents.

(Inherited from Ast)
Parent

The parent tree for this node.

(Inherited from Ast)
StaticType

The type of a StringConstantExpressionAst is always typeof(string).

StringConstantType

The type of string.

Value

The value of the string, not including the quotes used.

Methods

Copy()

Copy the StringConstantExpressionAst instance.

Find(Func<Ast,Boolean>, Boolean)

Traverse the entire Ast, returning the first node in the tree for which predicate returns true.

(Inherited from Ast)
FindAll(Func<Ast,Boolean>, Boolean)

Traverse the entire Ast, returning all nodes in the tree for which predicate returns true.

(Inherited from Ast)
SafeGetValue()

Constructs the resultant object from the AST and returns it if it is safe.

(Inherited from Ast)
SafeGetValue(Boolean)

Constructs the resultant object from the AST and returns it if it is safe.

(Inherited from Ast)
ToString()

Formats the ast and returns a string.

(Inherited from Ast)
Visit(AstVisitor)

Visit each node in the Ast, calling the methods in astVisitor for each node in the ast.

(Inherited from Ast)
Visit(ICustomAstVisitor)

Visit the Ast using a visitor that can choose how the tree traversal is performed. This visit method is for advanced uses of the visitor pattern where an AstVisitor is insufficient.
