Class PSGt

java.lang.Object
  operators.PSGt

All Implemented Interfaces:

PSEqualityOperator, PSObject, PSOperator

public class PSGt

extends java.lang.Object

implements PSEqualityOperator

Implements PSEqualityOperator interface.

Methods such as getOperatorToken() are inherited from PSEqualityOperator interface which, in turn, are inherited from PSOperator. This concrete class is responsible for comparing the top 2 literals of the Runtime Stack pushing back a boolean value representing if the first given is greater than the second.

Before comparison action() has to check if there are 2 PSNumber, PSString literals on top of the runtime stack.

Constructor Summary

PSGt()

Method Summary

void	action(PSStack s) Compares the literals given and returns the result back to the stack.
java.lang.String	getOperatorToken() Returns the token identifying this operator.
boolean	isValid(PSStack s) Checks if it valid to use this operator now.

Method Detail

getOperatorToken

public java.lang.String getOperatorToken()

Returns the token identifying this operator.

Returns the name of the operand that this concrete class simulates, here "gt".

Precondition : A valid operator class has been created.
Postcondition : A string is returned, labeling the semantics of this class.

Specified by:

getOperatorToken in interface PSOperator

Returns:

The token identifying this operator.

isValid

public boolean isValid(PSStack s)
                throws PSSyntaxException

Checks if it valid to use this operator now.

Comparison can occur if there are 2 literals on top of the stack.

Precondition : A valid instance of PSStack is given with 2 literals of the same type (PSNumber or PSString) on top.
Postcondition : A reply to the question whether the operator can perfom its defined behaviour.

Specified by:

isValid in interface PSOperator

Parameters:

s - A reference to PSStack instance.

Returns:

True if the operation can be executed, false otherwise.

Throws:

PSSyntaxException - The syntax of the token is wrong.

action

public void action(PSStack s)

Compares the literals given and returns the result back to the stack.

Precondition : A valid stack is given to method with 2 literals of the same type (PSNumber or PSString) on top.
Postcondition : A boolean value will be pushed back to the Runtime Stack.

Specified by:

action in interface PSEqualityOperator

Parameters:

s - The Runtime Stack which holds the literals.
