* A TypeDescriptor describes a type for display in the Go To Type dialog.
49
* Items should be comparable such that the infrastructure can return these.
53
public abstract class TypeDescriptor {
55
* Return the simple name of the type (not including qualifiers). The entries
56
* will typically be sorted by this key.
58
* @return The name of this type, e.g. for java.util.List it would be "List"
60
public abstract String getSimpleName();
63
* <p>Return the "outer" name of the type, if any. For Java for example, this would be
64
* the outer class if this type is an inner class.</p>
65
* <p>Do not confuse with {@link #getContextName}!</p>
67
* @return The name of the outer class of this type, if any, otherwise return null
69
public abstract String getOuterName();
72
* Return the name of this type, along with the outer name. This might
73
* for example be "Entry in Map" for java.util.Map.Entry
75
* @return The outer and inner name of this type, e.g. for java.util.Map.Entry it would be "Entry in Map"
77
public abstract String getTypeName();
80
* Provide additional context for the type name. This would typically be
81
* the fully qualified name, minus the name part. Return null if there is
82
* no applicable context. For example, "java.util.List" would return "java.util"
85
* @return A description of the context of the type, such as the fully qualified name
88
public abstract String getContextName();
91
* Return an icon that should be shown for this type descriptor. The icon
92
* should give a visual indication of the type of match, e.g. class versus
93
* module. A default icon will be supplied if this method returns null.
95
* @return An Icon to be shown on the left hand side with the type entry
97
public abstract Icon getIcon();
100
* Return the display name of the project containing this type (if any).
102
* @return The display name of the project containing the type declaration
104
public abstract String getProjectName();
107
* Return an icon that is applicable for the project defining the type.
108
* Generally, this should be the same as the project icon. This method will only
109
* be calld if {@link #getProjectName} returned a non-null value.
111
* @return A project icon corresponding to the project defining this type
113
public abstract Icon getProjectIcon();
116
* Return a FileObject for this type.
117
* This will only be called when the dialog is opening the type or when
118
* the user selects the file, so it does not have to be as fast as the other
119
* descriptor attributes.
121
* @return The file object where the type is defined
123
public abstract FileObject getFileObject();
126
* Return the document offset corresponding to the type.
127
* This will only be called when the dialog is opening the type, so
128
* does not have to be as fast as the other descriptor attributes.
130
* @todo This method is intended to replace the open() call below.
132
* @return The document offset of the type declaration in the declaration file
134
public abstract int getOffset();
137
* Open the type declaration in the editor.
138
* @todo Should we nuke this method and only have type declarations return
139
* their offsets? I looked at the Java implementation and it's leveraging
140
* some utility methods to open the type declaration; I have similar methods
141
* in Ruby. It might be more convenient
