Detailed Description

An expression converter converts an XML expression represented by an IConfigurationElement (DOM) subtree into a corresponding expression tree.

An expression converter manages a list of ElementHandlers. Element handlers are responsible to do the actual conversion. The element handlers build a chain of responsibility.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ExpressionConverter()

berry::ExpressionConverter::ExpressionConverter

(

const QList< SmartPointer< ElementHandler > > &

handlers

)

Creates a new expression converter with the given list of element handlers. The element handlers build a chain of responsibility meaning that the first handler in the list is first used to convert the configuration element. If this handler isn't able to convert the configuration element the next handler in the array is used.

Parameters

handlers

the array of element handlers

Member Function Documentation

GetDebugPath()

QString berry::ExpressionConverter::GetDebugPath

(

const SmartPointer< IConfigurationElement > &

configurationElement

)

GetDefault()

static ExpressionConverter* berry::ExpressionConverter::GetDefault ( )

static

Returns the default expression converter. The default expression converter can cope with all expression elements defined by the common expression language.

Returns

the default expression converter

Perform() [1/2]

SmartPointer<Expression> berry::ExpressionConverter::Perform

(

const SmartPointer< IConfigurationElement > &

root

)

Converts the tree of configuration elements represented by the given root element and returns a corresponding expression tree.

Parameters

root	the configuration element to be converted

Returns

the corresponding expression tree or null if the configuration element cannot be converted

Exceptions

CoreException

if the configuration element can't be converted. Reasons include: (a) no handler is available to cope with a certain configuration element or (b) the XML expression tree is malformed.

Perform() [2/2]

SmartPointer<Expression> berry::ExpressionConverter::Perform

(

Poco::XML::Element *

root

)

Converts the tree of DOM elements represented by the given root element and returns a corresponding expression tree.

Parameters

root	the element to be converted

Returns

the corresponding expression tree or null if the element cannot be converted

Exceptions

CoreException

if the element can't be converted. Reasons include: (a) no handler is available to cope with a certain element or (b) the XML expression tree is malformed.

ProcessChildren() [1/2]

void berry::ExpressionConverter::ProcessChildren	(	const SmartPointer< IConfigurationElement > &	element,
		const SmartPointer< CompositeExpression > &	result
	)

ProcessChildren() [2/2]

void berry::ExpressionConverter::ProcessChildren	(	Poco::XML::Element *	element,
		const SmartPointer< CompositeExpression > &	result
	)
