Returns:

a deep copy of this expression.

defaultPrint

public static void defaultPrint(StringLiteral lit,
                                java.io.OutputStream stream)

Prints a literal to a stream.

Parameters:

lit - The literal to print.

stream - The stream on which to print the literal.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from class: Expression

Every expression class should override toString method.

Overrides:

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Expression

getValue

public java.lang.String getValue()

setClassPrintMethod

public static void setClassPrintMethod(java.lang.reflect.Method m)

Overrides the class print method, so that all subsequently created objects will use the supplied method.

Parameters:

m - The new print method.

setValue

public void setValue(java.lang.String value)

stripQuotes

public void stripQuotes()

Removes outer quotes from the string; this class automatically prints quotes around the string so it does not need to store them. Thus, if you create a StringLiteral with a String that already has quotes around it, you will have double quotes, and may need to call this method. The method has no effect if there are no quotes.
