NonAbstractJavaFunction

rascal-0.40.17

Synopsis

A function declared with the java modifier has a Rascal body.

Description

Rascal functions can be implemented in Java. This is the case for many functions in the standard library. This requires these elements:

• An abstract Rascal function declaration (= a function header without a body).
• The keyword java should be part of the function header.
• The function declaration is annotated (uing javaClass) with the name of the Java class that implements this function.

This error is generated when the function does have a body.

Remedies:

• Remove the java keyword.
• If this happens to a library function, contact the Rascal developers: Ask a question at Rascal Ask site. Read the currently open issues at the Rascal's issue tracker. If your problem has not yet been reported by someone else, please report it here.

If you are an expert developer, please check the body of the offending function first.

Examples

rascal>java int incr(int x) {}
|prompt:///|(0,23,<1,0>,<1,23>): Java function has a body
