public class NamespaceUtils extends java.lang.Object
A class to hold utility methods for working with namespaces. Assumptions for creating namespaces from a path string:- All elements of a namespace path should be namespace symbols and not other symbol types.
- Absolute paths can optionally start with the global namespace.
- You can provide a relative path that will start at the given parent namespace (or global if there is no parent provided).
- You can provide a path that has as its first entry the name of the given parent. In this case, the first entry will not be created, but rather the provided parent will be used.
- If you provide a path and a parent, but the first element of the path is the global namespace, then the global namespace will be used as the parent namespace and not the one that was provided.
- You cannot embed the global namespace in a path, but it can be at the root.

getNamespaceByPath
public static java.util.List<Namespace> getNamespaceByPath(Program program, Namespace parent, java.lang.String pathString)
Returns a list of namespaces that match the given path. The path can be relative to the given root namespace or absolute if the path begins with the global namespace name.Note: this path must only contain Namespace names and no other symbol types.
- Parameters:

Returns a list all namespaces that have the given name in any of the given namespaces- Parameters:
childName
- the name of the namespaces to retrieveparents

- a list all namespaces that have the given name in any of the given namespaces
-
getSymbols
public static java.util.List<Symbol> getSymbols(java.lang.String symbolPath, Program program)
Returns a list of all symbols that match the given path. The path consists of a series of namespaces names separated by "::" followed by a label or function name.- Parameters:
symbolPath
- the names of namespaces and symbol separated by "::".program
- the program to search- Returns:
- the list of symbols that match the given
-
getSymbols

Returns a list of Symbol that match the given symbolPath.- Parameters:
symbolPath
- the symbol path that specifies a series of namespace and symbol names.program
- the program to search for symbols with the given path.- Returns:

-
getFirstNonFunctionNamespace
public static Namespace getFirstNonFunctionNamespace(Namespace parent, java.lang.String namespaceName, Program program)

-
createNamespaceHierarchy
public static Namespace createNamespaceHierarchy(java.lang.String namespacePath, Namespace rootNamespace, Program program, SourceType source) throws InvalidInputException
Takes a namespace path string and creates a namespace hierarchy to match that string. This method ignores function namespaces so the path should not contain any function names. If you want traverse down through functions, then use the version that also takes an address that is used to distinguish between multiple functions with the same name.The root namespace can be a function.
- Parameters:
namespacePath
- The namespace name or path string to be parsed. This value should not include a trailing symbol name, only namespace names.rootNamespace
- The parent namespace under which the desired namespace or path resides. If this value is null, then the global namespace will be used. This namespace can be a function name;program
- The current program in which the desired namespace resides.source
- the source type of the namespace- Returns:
- The namespace that matches the given path. This can be either an existing namespace or a newly created one.
- Throws:
InvalidInputException
- If a given namespace name is in an invalid format and this method attempts to create that namespace, or if the namespace string contains the global namespace name in a position other than the root.- See Also:
- assumptions

createNamespaceHierarchy
public static Namespace createNamespaceHierarchy(java.lang.String namespacePath, Namespace rootNamespace, Program program, Address address, SourceType source) throws InvalidInputException
Takes a namespace path string and creates a namespace hierarchy to match that string. This method allows function namespaces in the path and uses the given address to resolve functions with duplicate names. When resolving down the namespace path, a function that matches a name will only be used if the given address is contained in the body of that function.The root namespace can be a function.
If an address is passed, then the path can contain a function name provided the address is in the body of the function; otherwise the names must all be namespaces other than functions.
- Parameters:
namespacePath
- The namespace name or path string to be parsed This value should not include a trailing symbol name, only namespace namesrootNamespace
- The parent namespace under which the desired namespace or path resides. If this value is null, then the global namespace will be used.program
- The current program in which the desired namespace residesaddress
- the address used to resolve possible functions with duplicate names; may be nullsource
- the source of the namespace- Returns:
- The namespace that matches the given path. This can be either an existing namespace or a newly created one.
- Throws:
InvalidInputException
- If a given namespace name is in an invalid format and this method attempts to create that namespace, or if the namespace string contains the global namespace name in a position other than the root.- See Also:
