Method Detail

addPattern

public void addPattern(IRegEx aRegEx,
                       IConstraintViolations aViolations,
                       IHasLocation aHasLocation)

Adds a pattern to the pattern constraint. If multiple patterns are added to the same pattern constraint then they describe valid alternatives, i.e. they are "or"ed together. Whereas patterns added to different steps in the type derivation are "and"ed together.

Parameters:

aViolations - (required).
