Field Detail

EMPTY_ARRAY

static final FileProcessingCompiler.ProcessingItem[] EMPTY_ARRAY

A utility constant used to return empty arrays of ProcessingItem objects

Method Detail

getFile

@NotNull
VirtualFile getFile()

Returns the file to be processed.

Returns:

a file to be processed; cannot be null

getValidityState

@Nullable
ValidityState getValidityState()

Returns:

an object describing dependencies of the instrumented file (can be null). For example, if the file "A" should be processed whenever file "B" or file "C" is changed, the ValidityState object can be composed of a pair [timestamp("B"), timestamp("C")]. Thus, whenever a timestamp of any of these files is changed, the current ValidityState won't be equal to the stored ValidityState and the item will be picked up by the make for recompilation.
