  • Method Details

    • lookupMagicString

      public static LanguageCompilerSpecPair lookupMagicString(String magicString, boolean languageReplacementOK)
      Check for a mapping of an old language-name magicString to a LanguageID/CompilerSpec pair. If returnLanguageReplacement is false, the returned LanguageID/CompilerSpec pair may no longer exist and may require use of an OldLanguage and translation process.
      Parameters:
      magicString - old language name magic string
      languageReplacementOK - if true the LanguageID/CompilerSpec pair corresponding to the latest language implementation will be returned if found, otherwise the a deprecated LanguageID/CompilerSpec pair may be returned. This parameter should be false if there is a sensitivity to the language implementation (e.g., instruction prototypes, etc.)
      Returns:
      LanguageID/CompilerSpec pair or null if entry not found.

    • doLookupMagicString

      protected LanguageCompilerSpecPair doLookupMagicString(String magicString, boolean languageReplacementOK)

    • validatePair

      protected static LanguageCompilerSpecPair validatePair(LanguageCompilerSpecPair pair)

    • processXmlLanguageString

      public static LanguageCompilerSpecPair processXmlLanguageString(String languageString)
      Parse the language string from an XML language name into the most appropriate LanguageID/CompilerSpec pair. The language name may either be an old name (i.e., magicString) or a new <language-id>:<compiler-spec-id> string. If an old language name magic-string is provided, its replacement language will be returned if known. The returned pair may or may not be available based upon available language implementations.
      Parameters:
      languageString - old or new language string
      Returns:
      LanguageID/CompilerSpec pair or null if no old name mapping could be found.
