Method Detail

getCompilationUnit

public ICompilationUnit getCompilationUnit()
Returns:
Returns the current compilation unit.

getSelectionOffset

public int getSelectionOffset()
Returns:
Returns the offset of the current selection

getSelectionLength

public int getSelectionLength()
Returns:
Returns the length of the current selection

getASTRoot

public CompilationUnit getASTRoot()
Returns an AST of the compilation unit, possibly only a partial AST focused on the selection offset (see ASTParser.setFocalPosition(int)). The returned AST is shared and therefore protected and cannot be modified. The client must check the AST API level and do nothing if they are given an AST they can't handle. (see AST.apiLevel()).

Returns:
Returns the root of the AST corresponding to the current compilation unit.

getCoveringNode

public ASTNode getCoveringNode()
Convenience method to evaluate the AST node covering the current selection.

Returns:
Returns the node that covers the location of the problem

getCoveredNode

public ASTNode getCoveredNode()
Convenience method to evaluate the AST node that is covered by the current selection.

Returns:
Returns the node that is covered by the location of the problem
