One of the expressions in the Java AST declaration is Expression::super().
For which Java expression(s) is super() used?
Take this example class:
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class SuperTests<T> extends ArrayList<T> {
public SuperTests() {
super();
}
public SuperTests(int capacity) {
super(capacity);
}
@Override
public void clear() {
super.clear();
}
public <T extends Integer> void addSupers(List<? super T> list) {
}
}
The AST in rascal is:

It does not contain the super() constructor with no arguments. Only in case of the wildcard bound (wildcard(super() is there a super(_) but it has one argument and is described in the lang::java::m3::TypeSymbol module.
So what is happening, is there a Java construct I'm missing, or is the Rascal ADT definition incorrect with respect to what is generated in the AST?
回答1:
It isn't used to represent any Java expression anymore. It is a part of the code before we decided to change how super constructor invocation and super method invocation are represented in the Java AST in Rascal.
All constructor calls are represented by constructorCall(bool isSuper, _). A value of true in the isSuper field indicates that it is a super call. Similarly, all method calls are represented by methodCall(bool isSuper,_) with the same logic.
The wildcard(_) and super(_) from lang::java::m3::TypeSymbol are used to represent type information that is used in ASTs as well as M3.
