Package de.monticore.interpreter.calculations

Interface MICalculation

All Known Subinterfaces:
MICalculationBoolean, MICalculationDouble, MICalculationInt, MICalculationValue, MICalculationVoid
public interface MICalculation
Represents a calculation of the interpreter.

A calculation is the actual execution that happens during interpretation, used for phase two of the interpreter. Phase one is the creation of these calculations to avoid traversing the AST more than once. Any static decisions (e.g., which types to use) are done during phase one, so these calculations are as simple as possible to rely on Java's runtime optimization.

Calculations may have a return value (e.g., for expressions) and may have side effects.

    • isCalculationValue

      default boolean isCalculationValue()

    • isCalculationVoid

      default boolean isCalculationVoid()

    • asCalculationBoolean

      default MICalculationBoolean asCalculationBoolean()

    • asCalculationInt

      default MICalculationInt asCalculationInt()

    • asCalculationDouble

      default MICalculationDouble asCalculationDouble()

    • asCalculationValue

      default MICalculationValue asCalculationValue()

    • asCalculationVoid

      MICalculationVoid asCalculationVoid()
      Returns this as a calculation without return value. Every MICalculation can be converted to a MICalculationVoid.
      Returns:
      This, but without return value if there was any.
