### Field Detail

#### source

    protected ReaderSource source

Where we can get Readers for our source unit

#### name

    protected java.lang.String name

A descriptive name of the source unit. This name shouldn't be used for controlling the SourceUnit, it is only for error messages and to determine the name of the class for a script.

#### cst

    protected Reduction cst

A Concrete Syntax Tree of the source

#### ast

    protected ModuleNode ast

The root of the Abstract Syntax Tree for the source

              CompilerConfiguration configuration,
              GroovyClassLoader loader,
              ErrorCollector er)

Initializes the SourceUnit from the specified file.

#### SourceUnit

### Method Detail

#### getName

    public java.lang.String getName()

Returns the name for the SourceUnit. This name shouldn't be used for controlling the SourceUnit, it is only for error messages

#### getCST

    public Reduction getCST()

Returns the Concrete Syntax Tree produced during parse()ing.

#### getAST

    public ModuleNode getAST()

Returns the Abstract Syntax Tree produced during convert()ing and expanded during later phases.

#### failedWithUnexpectedEOF

    public boolean failedWithUnexpectedEOF()

Convenience routine, primarily for use by the InteractiveShell, that returns true if parse() failed with an unexpected EOF.

#### isEofToken

    protected boolean isEofToken(antlr.Token token)

#### create

    public static SourceUnit create(java.lang.String name,
                    java.lang.String source)

A convenience routine to create a standalone SourceUnit on a String with defaults for almost everything that is configurable.

#### create

    public static SourceUnit create(java.lang.String name,
                    java.lang.String source,
                    int tolerance)

A convenience routine to create a standalone SourceUnit on a String with defaults for almost everything that is configurable.

#### parse

    public void parse()
               throws CompilationFailedException

Parses the source to a CST. You can retrieve it with getCST().

Throws:
  `CompilationFailedException`

#### convert

    public void convert()
                 throws CompilationFailedException

Generates an AST from the CST. You can retrieve it with getAST().

Throws:
  `CompilationFailedException`

#### getSample

    public java.lang.String getSample(int line,
                             int column,
                             Janitor janitor)

Returns a sampling of the source at the specified line and column, of null if it is unavailable.

#### addException

    public void addException(java.lang.Exception e)
                      throws CompilationFailedException

This method adds an exception to the error collector. The Exception most likely has no line number attached to it. For this reason you should use this method sparingly. Prefer using addError for syntax errors or add an error to the `ErrorCollector` directly by retrieving it with getErrorCollector().

Parameters:
  `e` - the exception that occurred
Throws:
  `CompilationFailedException` - on error

#### addError

    public void addError(SyntaxException se)
                  throws CompilationFailedException

This method adds a SyntaxException to the error collector. The exception should specify the line and column number of the error. This method should be reserved for real errors in the syntax of the SourceUnit. If your error is not in syntax, and is a semantic error, or more general error, then use addException or use the error collector directly by retrieving it with getErrorCollector().

Parameters:
  `se` - the exception, which should have line and column information
Throws:
  `CompilationFailedException` - on error

#### getSource

    public ReaderSource getSource()
