Hi
I would love to get a more regular API for the AST Nodes.
Point 1
For example
I would love to have
leftBar -> leftBarToken to make sure that we see
immediately the fact that we do not get a node.
for example
RBValueNode subclass: #RBArrayNode
instanceVariableNames: 'left right statements periods'
classVariableNames: ''
package: 'AST-Core-Nodes'
is not really good since I have to remember "oh yes left = {
Point 2
Apparently it is implied that we always get nodes so
now when I get a methodNode
messageNode receiver
-> node
to get the text
messageNode receiver
I have no idea.
While working on pharodoc (it is just great) I faced the problem that I
really like to know what I'm manipulating and there is a
difference between an expression (text) and an expression node.
So what is the convention?
I would prefer to have xxxNode each time I want to get a node.
