    • setDataType

      public void setDataType(DataType type, VariableStorage storage, boolean force, SourceType source) throws InvalidInputException
      Description copied from interface: Variable
      Set the Data Type of this variable and the associated storage whose size matches the data type length.

      NOTE: The storage and source are ignored if the function does not have custom storage enabled.

      Specified by:
      setDataType in interface Variable
      Parameters:
      type - the data type
      storage - properly sized storage for the new data type
      force - overwrite conflicting variables
      source - variable storage source (used only for function parameters and return)
      Throws:
      InvalidInputException - if data type is not a fixed length or violates storage constraints.

    • setDataType

      public final void setDataType(DataType type, boolean align, boolean force, SourceType source) throws InvalidInputException
      Description copied from interface: Variable
      Set the Data Type of this variable. The given dataType must have a fixed length.
      Specified by:
      setDataType in interface Variable
      Parameters:
      type - the data type
      align - maintain proper stack alignment/justification if supported by implementation. If false and this is a stack variable, the current stack address/offset will not change. If true, the affect is implementation dependent since alignment can not be performed without access to a compiler specification.

      Description copied from interface: Variable
      Set the Data Type of this variable using the default alignment behavior (implementation specific). The given dataType must have a fixed length. If contained within a stack-frame, data-type size will be constrained by existing variables (e.g., equivalent to force=false) Note: stack offset will be maintained for stack variables.
      Specified by:
      setDataType in interface Variable
      Parameters:
      type - the data type
      source - signature source
      Throws:
