Module: Hocon::Parser::ConfigNode

Included in:
Impl::AbstractConfigNode
Defined in:
lib/hocon/parser/config_node.rb

Overview

An immutable node that makes up the ConfigDocument AST, and which can be used to reproduce part or all of the original text of an input.

Because this object is immutable, it is safe to use from multiple threads and there's no need for "defensive copies."

Do not implement interface ConfigNode; it should only be implemented by the config library. Arbitrary implementations will not work because the library internals assume a specific concrete implementation. Also, this interface is likely to grow new methods over time, so third-party implementations will break.
