Class: Puppet::Pops::Types::PTypeAliasType

Inherits:
PAnyType show all
Defined in:
lib/puppet/pops/types/types.rb

Overview

Describes a named alias for another Type. The alias is created with a name and an unresolved type expression. The type expression may in turn contain other aliases (including the alias that contains it) which means that an alias might contain self recursion. Whether or not that is the case is computed and remembered when the alias is resolved since guarding against self recursive constructs is relatively expensive.

Constructor Details

#initialize(name, type_expr, resolved_type = nil) ⇒ PTypeAliasType

Returns a new instance of PTypeAliasType.

Parameters:

  • name (String)

    The name of the type

  • type_expr (Model::PopsObject)

    The expression that describes the aliased type

  • resolved_type (PAnyType) (defaults to: nil)

    the resolve type (only used for the DEFAULT initialization)

#resolve(type_parser, loader) ⇒ PTypeAliasType

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Called from the TypeParser once it has found a type using the Loader. The TypeParser will interpret the contained expression and the resolved type is remembered. This method also checks and remembers if the resolve type contains self recursion.

Parameters:

  • type_parser (TypeParser)

    type parser that will interpret the type expression

  • loader (Loader::Loader)

    loader to use when loading type aliases

Returns:

#resolved_typePAnyType

Returns the resolved type. The type must have been resolved by a call prior to calls to this method or an error will be raised.

Returns:

  • (PAnyType)

    The resolved type of this alias.

Raises:

  • (Puppet::Error)

    unless the type has been resolved prior to calling this method
