Direct Known Subclasses:
PlainStringGenerator, SafeHtmlStringGenerator

public abstract class StringGenerator extends Object
Helper class to produce string expressions consisting of literals and computed values.
  • Field Details

    • buf

      protected final StringBuilder buf
      Output string buffer.
    • inString

      protected boolean inString
      True if we are in the middle of a string literal.
  • Constructor Details

    • StringGenerator

      protected StringGenerator(StringBuilder buf)
      Initialize the StringGenerator with an output buffer.
      Parameters:
      buf - output buffer
  • Method Details

    • create

      public static StringGenerator create(StringBuilder buf, boolean returnsSafeHtml)
      Create a StringGenerator instance.
      Parameters:
      buf -
      returnsSafeHtml -
      Returns:
      StringGenerator instance
    • appendExpression

      public void appendExpression(String expression, boolean isSafeHtmlTyped, boolean isPrimitiveTyped, boolean needsConversionToString)
      Append an expression to this string expression.
      Parameters:
      expression - to add
      isSafeHtmlTyped - true if the expression is known to be of type SafeHtml; only relevant if this generator has been initialized to generate a SafeHtml-valued expression
      isPrimitiveTyped - true if the expression is of a primitive type; only relevant if this generator has been initialized to generate a SafeHtml-valued expression
      needsConversionToString - true if the expression is not known to be of type String and needs to be converted
    • appendStringLiteral

      public void appendStringLiteral(String str)
      Append part of a string literal.
      Parameters:
      str - part of string literal
    • appendStringValuedExpression

      public void appendStringValuedExpression(String expression)
      Append an expression to this string expression.
      Parameters:
      expression - to add, which the caller asserts is String-valued
    • completeString

      public void completeString()
      Complete the string, closing an open quote and handling empty strings.
    • afterExpression

      protected abstract void afterExpression(StringGenerator.Type type)
    • beforeExpression

      protected abstract void beforeExpression(StringGenerator.Type type)
    • finishOutput

      protected abstract void finishOutput()
    • forceStringPrefix

      protected abstract void forceStringPrefix()
    • forceStringSuffix

      protected abstract void forceStringSuffix()
