@PersistantProperty(property="var") @PersistantProperty(property="type")
public abstract class AbstractVariableCreator
extends AbstractExecutable

Abstract class for executables which define variable(s). At compilation and execution, the variable type will be put in the context, if it can be resolved.
If a type is provided, it dictates the type of the variable's values.
Variables may be accessed by prefixing their name with "#" (VAR_PREFIX).

Method Detail

compileExecutable

protected void compileExecutable(ICompilationContext ctxt)
                          throws MRuleValidationException

Description copied from class: AbstractExecutable

Called by AbstractExecutable.compile(ICompilationContext) to perform compilation operations.

Specified by:

compileExecutable in class AbstractExecutable

clone in interface IExecutable

Overrides:

clone in class AbstractExecutable

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

debugVariableCreation

protected void debugVariableCreation(IExecutionContext ctxt,
                                     Object value)

To log creation if needed.
