    • findIdent

      public static com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol findIdent(String name, VisitorState state)
      Finds a variable declaration with the given name that is in scope at the current location.
    • findIdent

      public static @Nullable com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol findIdent(String name, VisitorState state, com.sun.tools.javac.code.Kinds.KindSelector kind)
      Finds a declaration with the given name and type that is in scope at the current location.
    • findAllIdents

      public static com.google.common.collect.ImmutableSet<com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol.VarSymbol> findAllIdents(VisitorState state)
      Finds the set of all bare variable identifiers in scope at the current location. Identifiers are ordered by ascending distance/scope count from the current location to match shadowing rules. That is, if two variables with the same simple names appear in the set, the one that appears first in iteration order is the one you get if you use the bare name in the source code.

      We do not report variables that would require a qualified access. We also do not handle wildcard imports.

    • findUnusedIdentifiers

      public static com.google.common.collect.ImmutableSet<com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol.VarSymbol> findUnusedIdentifiers(VisitorState state)
      Finds all variable declarations which are unused at this point in the AST (i.e. they might be used further on).
    • findReferencedIdentifiers

      public static com.google.common.collect.ImmutableSet<com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol> findReferencedIdentifiers(com.sun.source.tree.Tree tree)
      Find the set of all identifiers referenced within this Tree
    • findAllFields

      public static com.google.common.collect.ImmutableList<com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol.VarSymbol> findAllFields(com.sun.tools.javac.code.Type classType, VisitorState state)
      Finds all the visible fields declared or inherited in the target class
