          Description

Interface Summary
CanInline Inline an application, at the Expression level.
Inlineable  
TypeValue A Type or a Type expression.
 

Class Summary
AccessExp A common super-type for ReferenceExpa and SetExp.
ApplyExp This class is used to represent "combination" or "application".
BeginExp This class represents a sequence of Expressions.
BindingInitializer  
BlockExp Class used to implement a block that can be exited.
BuiltinEnvironment An Environment containing the default bindings for the current Language.
CatchClause A "catch" clause of a "try-catch" form.
ChainLambdas Sets up the firstChild/nextSibling links of each LambdaExp.
CheckedTarget Same as StackTarget, but catch ClassCastException.
ClassExp  
ClassInitializer Cause a class value from a ClassExp to be initialized.
Compilation State for a single expression or module.
ConditionalTarget This is the Target of a boolean expression, in a conditional context.
ConsumerTarget A Target which is some variable that implements gnu.lists.Consumer.
Declaration The static information associated with a local variable binding.
ErrorExp Class used to mark an erroneous expression
ExitExp Expression to exit a lexically surrounding block.
Expression Abstract class for syntactic forms that evaluate to a value.
ExpWalker Class for doing a tree-walk over an Expression tree.
FindCapturedVars  
FindTailCalls Does setTailCall on ApplyExp's that are tail-calls.
FluidLetExp Class used to implement "fluid-let" for Scheme and "let" for Emacs.
GenericProc A collection of MethodProcs; one is chosen at apply time.
IfExp This class represents a conditional.
IgnoreTarget  
Initializer A piece of code that needs to be added to , , or whatever.
InlineCalls  
KawaConvert Override gnu.lists.Convert to use Kawa number and Char classes.
Keyword  
LambdaExp Class used to implement Scheme lambda expressions.
LangExp A language-specific expression.
Language Contains various language-dependent methods.
LetExp Class used to implement "let" syntax (and variants) for Scheme.
Literal A Literal contains compile-time information about a constant.
LitTable Manages the literals of a Compilation.
ModuleBody Class for the dummy top-level function of a module.
ModuleContext Maps modules to module instances.
ModuleExp Class used to implement Scheme top-level environments.
ModuleInfo  
ModuleManager A database of known modules as represented by ModuleInfo..
ModuleMethod Call a specified method in in a ModuleBody.
ModuleSet The compiler generates extensions of this class.
ModuleWithContext  
NameLookup Manages the set of declarations "currently" in scope.
ObjectExp  
PairClassType A class type implemented as a pair of an interface and a class.
PrimProcedure A primitive Procedure implemented by a plain Java method.
ProcInitializer  
PushApply Re-arranges ApplyExp where the function is a LetExp or BeginExp.
QuoteExp An Expression that evaluates to a constant value.
ReferenceExp This class represents a variable reference (an identifier).
ResolveNames This resolves references to lexical Declarations.
ScopeExp Abstract class for expressions that add local variable bindings.
SeriesTarget The value in the result (as a sequence of values) is passed to a function.
SetExp An Expression to set (bind) or define a new value to a named variable.
Special A class of special one-of-a-kind builtin values.
StackTarget  
Symbols Utility class containing various routines to manipulate Scheme symbols.
SynchronizedExp  
Target This represents where a compiler can put the result of an expression.
ThisExp Evaluates to the "this" implicit variable.
TryExp This class represents try/catch/finally.
