Class BoxStructLiteral

java.lang.Object

ortus.boxlang.compiler.ast.BoxNode

All Implemented Interfaces:

IBoxLiteral, BoxVisitable

public class BoxStructLiteral
extends BoxExpression
implements IBoxLiteral

A struct literal comes in two forms, ordered and unordered (default). The unordered struct uses curly braces `{}` like a JSON object. The ordered struct, uses square brackets `[]` like an array literal. The difference is structs use a comma-delimited list of key/value pairs. Note, key/value pairs ANYWHERE in Boxlang can either be specified as ` foo=bar` OR `foo : bar`. This goes for strut literals, function parameters, or class/UDF metadata.

Constructor Details

BoxStructLiteral

public BoxStructLiteral(BoxStructType type,
 List<BoxExpression> values,
 Position position,

accept

public void accept(VoidBoxVisitor v)

Description copied from interface: BoxVisitable

Accept method for visitor support.

Specified by:

accept in interface BoxVisitable

Parameters:
