Interface ISimpleCompiler
- All Superinterfaces:
- ICookable
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- ClassBodyEvaluator, ClassBodyEvaluator, ExpressionEvaluator, ExpressionEvaluator, ScriptEvaluator, ScriptEvaluator, SimpleCompiler, SimpleCompiler
public interface ISimpleCompiler
- extends ICookable
A simplified Java™ compiler that can compile only a single compilation unit. (A "compilation unit" is the
document stored in a ".java" file.)
Opposed to a normal ".java" file, you can declare multiple public classes here.
To set up an ISimpleCompiler
object, proceed as follows:
-
Create an
ISimpleCompiler
-implementing object
-
Optionally set an alternate parent class loader through
ICookable.setParentClassLoader(ClassLoader)
.
-
Call any of the
ICookable.cook(String, Reader)
methods to scan, parse, compile and load the compilation
unit into the JVM.
-
Call
getClassLoader()
to obtain a that you can use to access the compiled classes.

getClassLoader()
- Returns a object through which the previously compiled classes can be accessed. This can be used for subsequent
ISimpleCompiler
s in order to compile compilation units that use
types (e.g. declare derived types) declared in the previous one.
This method must only be called after exactly on of the ICookable.cook(String, java.io.Reader)
methods was called.
