Interface CodeGenerator

All Known Implementing Classes:

SootCodeGenerator

public interface CodeGenerator

Interface for objects that can generate C source code and header files that conform to the JC C source file standard.

Method Summary

void	generateC(String className, ClassfileFinder finder, OutputStream output) Generate the C source file for the given class.
void	generateH(String className, ClassfileFinder finder, OutputStream output) Generate the C header file for the given class.
void	reset() Reset state.

Method Detail

generateH

public void generateH(String className,
                      ClassfileFinder finder,
                      OutputStream output)
               throws Exception

Parameters:

className - name of the class who's header file we're generating

finder - a way to acquire Java class files

output - where to write the generated header file to

Throws:

Exception

generateC

public void generateC(String className,
                      ClassfileFinder finder,
                      OutputStream output)
               throws Exception

Generate the C source file for the given class.

Parameters:

className - name of the class who's C file we're generating

finder - a way to acquire Java class files

output - where to write the generated C file to

Throws:

reset

public void reset()

Reset state.

Currently only one CodeGenerator instance will be in use at a time. Before and after each use, this method is invoked. A good oportunity to free objects that are no longer needed, (re)initialize state, etc.
