TreeMaker (Java Source Base)

java.lang.Object
- org.netbeans.api.java.source.TreeMaker

```
public final class TreeMaker
extends Object
```
Factory interface for creating new com.sun.source.tree instances. The parameters for each method correspond as closely as possible to the accessor methods for each tree interface.
You can obtain appropriate instance of this class by getting it from working copy:
```
 CancellableTask task = new CancellableTask<WorkingCopy>() {

 public void run(WorkingCopy workingCopy) throws Exception {
 TreeMaker make = workingCopy.getTreeMaker();
 ... your modification code here
 }
 ...
 }; 
 
```

 - setLabel
```
public <N extends Tree> N setLabel(N node,
 CharSequence aLabel)
 throws IllegalArgumentException
```
 Replaces the original node's label with new one provided in aLabel argument. Throws IllegalArgumentException if node's kind is invalid. Valid node's kinds are:
 BREAK, CLASS, CONTINUE, IDENTIFIER, LABELED_STATEMENT, MEMBER_SELECT, METHOD, TYPE_PARAMETER, VARIABLE, MEMBER_REFERENCE (since 0.112).
 Consider you want to change name of method fooMet to fooMethod:
```
 public void fooMet() throws java.io.IOException {
 ...
 }
 
```
 You can get it e.g. with this code:
```
 MethodTree footMet = contains footMet tree;
 MethodTree fooMethod = make.setLabel(fooMet, "fooMethod");
 workingCopy.rewrite(node, njuMethod);
 
```
 This code will result to:
```
 public void fooMethod() throws java.io.IOException {
 ...
 }
 
```
 Parameters:
 
 node - argument will be duplicated and its label replaced with aLabel
 
 aLabel - represents new node's name or other label
 
 Returns:
 
 duplicated node with a new name
 
 Throws:
 
 IllegalArgumentException - if the user provides illegal node's kind, i.e. if the provided node does not contain any name or String.
 - setExtends
```
public ClassTree setExtends(ClassTree node,
 ExpressionTree extendz)
```
 Replaces extends clause in class declaration. Consider you want to make Matricale class extending class Yerba. You have the class available:
```
 public class Matricale {
 ...
 }
 
```
 Running following code:
```
 TreeMaker make = workingCopy.getTreeMaker();
 ClassTree matricale = contains Matricale class;
 ClassTree modified = make.setExtends(matricale, make.Identifier("Yerba"));
 workingCopy.rewrite(matricale, modified);
 
```
 will result to:
```
 public class Matricale extends Yerba {
 ....
 }
 
```
 Note: It does not apply for interface declaration. For interfaces declaration, use implements clause in ClassTree for changed extends clause. It is a workaround allowing to extends more interfaces.
 Parameters:
 
 node - class where the extends clause will be replaced
 
 extendz - new extends identifier or member select.
 
 Returns:
 
 node's copy with new extends clause
 - setInitialValue
```
public <N extends Tree> N setInitialValue(N node,
 ExpressionTree initializer)
```
 Replaces initializer in appropriate element. Allowed types for node are MethodTree and VariableTree. Initial value is available for variables except the parameters. Fields and local variables can be passed to the method. In addition to, annotation attribute represented by MethodTree is also valid value. Consider you have declaration:
```
 public static String cedron;
 
```
 Running following code:
```
 TreeMaker make = workingCopy.getTreeMaker();
 VariableTree cedron = contains cedron field;
 Literal initialValue = make.Literal("This is a cedron.");
 VariableTree modified = make.setInitialValue(cedron, literal);
 workingCopy.rewrite(matricale, modified);
 
```
 will result to:
```
 public static String cedron = "This is a cedron.";
 
```
 Parameters:
 
 node - replace the initial value in node
 
 initializer - new initial value
 
 Returns:
 
 node's copy with new initializer
 
 Throws:
 
 IllegalArgumentException - if the user provides illegal node's kind, i.e. if the provided node is neither MethodTree nor VariableTree
 - addComment
```
public void addComment(Tree tree,

 preceding - true if preceding comments should be added, false if trailing comments should be added.
 
 Throws:
 
 IllegalStateException - if the method is called outside the runModificationTask
 - insertComment
```
public void insertComment(Tree tree,
 Comment comment,
 int index,
 boolean preceding)
 throws IllegalStateException
```
 Insert a comment to the list of comments attached to a given tree (to a specified position).
 
 Parameters:
 
 tree - to which comment should added
 
 comment - to add
 
 index - -1 to add comment to the end of the list or index at which the comment should be added
 
 preceding - true if preceding comments should be added, false if trailing comments should be added.
 
 Throws:
 
 IllegalStateException - if the method is called outside the runModificationTask
 - removeComment
```
public void removeComment(Tree tree,
 int index,
 boolean preceding)
 throws IllegalStateException
```

 index - comment to remove
 
 Throws:
 
 IllegalStateException - if the method is called outside the runModificationTask
 - asNew
```
public <T extends Tree> T asNew(T tree)
```
 Marks the tree as new. This information serves as a hint to code generator, which may choose appropriate formatting for the tree, or suppress comments which might get associated to the tree.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T -
 
 Parameters:
 
 tree - Tree instance
 
 Returns:
 
 the tree itself
 - asReplacementOf
```
public <T extends Tree> T asReplacementOf(T treeNew,
 Tree treeOld)
```
 Marks a tree as a replacement of some old one. The hint may cause surrounding whitespace to be carried over to the new tree and comments to be attached to the same (similar) positions as in the old tree. Prevous hints are removed.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T -
 
 Parameters:
 
 treeNew - the new tree instance
 
 treeOld - the old tree instance
 
 Returns:
 
 the new tree instance unchanged
 
 Since:
 
 0.137
 
 See Also:
 
 TreeMaker.asReplacementOf(com.sun.source.tree.Tree, com.sun.source.tree.Tree, boolean)
 - asReplacementOf
```
public <T extends Tree> T asReplacementOf(T treeNew,
 Tree treeOld,
 boolean defaultOnly)
```
 Marks a tree as a replacement of some old one. The hint may cause surrounding whitespace to be carried over to the new tree and comments to be attached to the same (similar) positions as in the old tree.
 If 'defaultOnly' is true, the hint is only added if no previous hint exists. You generally want to force the hint, in code manipulation operations. Bulk tree transformers should preserve existing hints - the TreeUtilities.translate(com.sun.source.tree.Tree, java.util.Map<? extends com.sun.source.tree.Tree, ? extends com.sun.source.tree.Tree>) preserves existing relationships.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T -
 
 Parameters:
 
 treeNew -
 
 treeOld -
 
 defaultOnly -
 
 Returns:
 
 a tree that corresponds to treeNew.
 
 Since:
 
 0.137
 - asRemoved
```
public <T extends Tree> T asRemoved(T tree)
```
 Marks the tree as removed. The mark may affect whitespace and comment handling. For example, if the tree was rewritten by a different construct, and there's no direct replacement for the tree, the tree node should be marked as removed, so that comments do not end up with the replacement. The caller is then responsible for preserving comments or other whitespace in the removed node.
 
 Type Parameters:
 
 T -
 
 Parameters:
 
 tree - tree that has been removed.
 
 Returns:
 
 the tree.
