## Enum CompilePhase

- java.lang.Object
- - java.lang.Enum<CompilePhase>
  - - org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilePhase

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<CompilePhase>

    public enum CompilePhase
    extends java.lang.Enum<CompilePhase>

The phases of the GroovyCompiler. This is an enum facade on top of the Phases object. In general, prefer using this object over Phases.

### Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant and Description
`CANONICALIZATION` Complete building the AST
`CLASS_GENERATION` creates the binary output in memory
`CONVERSION` An abstract syntax tree (AST) is created from token trees
`FINALIZATION` Perform any last cleanup
`INITIALIZATION` source files are opened and environment configured
`INSTRUCTION_SELECTION` instruction set is chosen, for example java5 or pre java5
`OUTPUT` write the binary output to the file system
`PARSING` the grammar is used to to produce tree of tokens representing the source code
`SEMANTIC_ANALYSIS` Performs consistency and validity checks that the grammar can't check for, and resolves classes

### Field Summary

Fields
`static CompilePhase[]` `phases` The phases as an array, with a null entry.

### Method Summary

Methods
`static CompilePhase` `fromPhaseNumber(int phaseNumber)` Returns the CompilePhase for the given integer phase number.
`int` `getPhaseNumber()` Returns the underlieng integer Phase number.
`static CompilePhase` `valueOf(java.lang.String name)` Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
`static CompilePhase[]` `values()` Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

#### PARSING

    public static final CompilePhase PARSING

the grammar is used to to produce tree of tokens representing the source code

#### CONVERSION

    public static final CompilePhase CONVERSION

An abstract syntax tree (AST) is created from token trees

#### SEMANTIC_ANALYSIS

    public static final CompilePhase SEMANTIC_ANALYSIS

Performs consistency and validity checks that the grammar can't check for, and resolves classes

#### CANONICALIZATION

    public static final CompilePhase CANONICALIZATION

Complete building the AST

#### INSTRUCTION_SELECTION

    public static final CompilePhase INSTRUCTION_SELECTION

instruction set is chosen, for example java5 or pre java5

#### CLASS_GENERATION

    public static final CompilePhase CLASS_GENERATION

creates the binary output in memory

#### OUTPUT

    public static final CompilePhase OUTPUT

write the binary output to the file system

#### FINALIZATION

    public static final CompilePhase FINALIZATION

Perform any last cleanup

### Field Detail

#### phases

    public static CompilePhase[] phases

The phases as an array, with a null entry.

### Method Detail

#### values

    public static CompilePhase[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

    for (CompilePhase c : CompilePhase.values())
        System.out.println(c);

Returns:
  an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

#### valueOf

    public static CompilePhase valueOf(java.lang.String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
  `name` - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
  the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
  `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
  `java.lang.NullPointerException` - if the argument is null

#### getPhaseNumber

    public int getPhaseNumber()

Returns the underlieng integer Phase number.

#### fromPhaseNumber

    public static CompilePhase fromPhaseNumber(int phaseNumber)

Returns the CompilePhase for the given integer phase number.

Parameters:
  `phaseNumber` - the phase number
Returns:
  the CompilePhase or null if not found
