Interface JotMethodCall

All Superinterfaces:

JotElement, JotExpression, JotStatementExpression

public interface JotMethodCall

extends JotStatementExpression

The JotMethodCall interface corresponds to method invocation expressions.

Method calls can be nested (for example, f().g()). In this case, the first method call (f()) is the primary method call. The second method call (g()) can be retrieved by calling the getNestedMethodCall method on the initial method call object.

Since:

5.0
