class ObjectNameExpression

Represents an expression referring to the name of the current object.

DEFINITION
class ObjectNameExpression;

constructor ObjectNameExpression

DEFINITION
ObjectNameExpression ( const Location & location );
PARAMETERDESCRIPTION
location

method createstatic

DEFINITION
static Expression  create ( const Location & location,
Object * object );
PARAMETERDESCRIPTION
location
object
RETURNSDESCRIPTION
Expression

method evaluatevirtual

Evaluate the expression in the given context.

The default implementation calls evaluate() on all sub-expressions using traverse(), and then calls evaluate_process().

Errors during evaluation should either be reported via DiagnosticOutput and result in the expression being marked as invalid, or an exception should be thrown.

DEFINITION
virtual std::optional< Expression >  evaluate ( const EvaluationContext & context );
PARAMETERDESCRIPTION
context

The evaluation context.

RETURNSDESCRIPTION
std::optional< Expression >

The Expression to replace this expression with, {} if no replacement is needed.

method serialize_subconst virtual

Serialize the expression to a stream.

This method must be implemented by derived classes.

DEFINITION
virtual void  serialize_sub ( std::ostream & stream ) const;
PARAMETERDESCRIPTION
stream

The stream to serialize to.

method typeconst virtual

Get the type of the expression's value.

The default implementation returns the type of the value of the expression if it is known, or {} otherwise. Subclasses should override this method if they can determine the type of the expression without knowing the exact value of the expression.

DEFINITION
virtual std::optional< Value::Type >  type ( ) const;
RETURNSDESCRIPTION
std::optional< Value::Type >

The type of the expression's value if it can be determined, {} otherwise.
