This returns all classes that have valid use statements in the class.

Parameters

Return

Libraries.Language.Compile.CompilerError:

AddGeneric(text name)

Parameters

Returns the file on disk that contains the implementation of this class.

Parameters

AddUseLocation(Libraries.Language.Compile.Location location)

AddValidUse(Libraries.Language.Compile.Symbol.Class clazz)

This action returns those parents that are directly specified in the class. Object is also always included in this list.

Parameters

Return

Libraries.Language.Compile.CompilerError:

CalculateFieldHints(Libraries.Language.Compile.CompilerErrorManager errors)

This action returns a class from a name, like Object, for Libraries.Language.Object. It assumes that the name passed in is not resolved. Fully resolvable names (Libraries.Language.Object) will not be resolved by this action, and as such, need to be resolved from the symbol table.
