Interface AstFieldReference

All Superinterfaces:

AstExpression, AstObject, AstReference

public interface AstFieldReference

extends AstExpression, AstReference

Represents a field access expression. It includes type field accesses, qualified super and this expressions, and class literals. For example:

     System.err.println();
     int i = T.super.length;
     int j = T.this.length;
     ProtectionDomain pd = T.class.getProtection();
 

Field Summary

static int	CLASS Constant representing a class literal reference.
static int	SIMPLE Constant representing a simple identifier reference.
static int	SUPER Constant representing a qualified super field access.
static int	THIS Constant representing a qualified this field access.
