Constructor Detail

StringExpression

public StringExpression(java.lang.String text)

Create a new string expression with the given string text.

Parameters:

text - the initial text of the string.

Method Detail

evaluate

public double evaluate(Variables variables,
                       QuoteBundle quoteBundle,
                       Symbol symbol,
                       int day)

Description copied from interface: Expression

Evaluates the given expression and returns the result.

Parameters:

variables - variable storage area for expression

quoteBundle - the quote bundle containing quote data to use

symbol - the current symbol

day - current date in cache fast access format

Returns:

the result of the expression

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from interface: Expression

Convert the given expression to a string.

Specified by:

toString in interface Expression

Overrides:

toString in class AbstractExpression

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object object)

Description copied from class: AbstractExpression

Returns whether this expression tree and the given expression tree are equivalent.

Specified by:

equals in interface Expression

Overrides:

equals in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

object - the other expression

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Description copied from class: AbstractExpression

If you override the AbstractExpression.equals(java.lang.Object) method then you should override this method. It provides a very basic hash code function.

Specified by:

hashCode in interface Expression

Overrides:

hashCode in class AbstractExpression

Returns:

a poor hash code of the tree

getText

public java.lang.String getText()

Get the text of the string.

Returns:

string text

getType

public int getType()

Get the type of the expression.

Returns:

Expression.STRING_TYPE

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Specified by:

clone in interface Expression

Specified by:

clone in class AbstractExpression
