copy

IASTLiteralExpression copy()
Description copied from interface: IASTNode
Returns a mutable copy of the tree rooted at this node. The following postconditions hold: copy.getParent() == null copy.getPropertyInParent() == null copy.isFrozen() == false Preprocessor nodes do not currently support being copied. Implicit name nodes are not copied, instead they can be regenerated if required. Calling this method is equivalent

Specified by:
copy in interface IASTExpression
Specified by:
copy in interface IASTInitializerClause
Specified by:
copy in interface IASTNode
Since:
5.1

copy

IASTLiteralExpression copy(IASTNode.CopyStyle style)
Description copied from interface: IASTNode
Returns a mutable copy of the tree rooted at this node. The following postconditions hold: copy.getParent() == null copy.getPropertyInParent() == null copy.isFrozen() == false Preprocessor nodes do not currently support being copied. Implicit name nodes are not copied, instead they can be regenerated if required.

Specified by:
copy in interface IASTExpression
Specified by:
copy in interface IASTInitializerClause
Specified by:
copy in interface IASTNode
Parameters:
style - IASTNode.CopyStyle create a copy with or without locations. Please see IASTNode.CopyStyle for restrictions on copies with Locations.
Since:
5.3

setValue

@Deprecated
void setValue(java.lang.String value)
Deprecated. Replaced by setValue(char[]).
