Find Java expression wrappers

Recipe IDio.moderne.prethink.FindJavaExpressionWrappers

Artifactio.moderne.recipe:rewrite-prethink

Report each explicit Java cast or expression parentheses with its actual direct operand UUID, source range and independently nullable type. Preserve nested wrappers and repeated physical occurrences without flattening expressions or changing their direct kinds. Include ControlParentheses only as the actual direct TypeCast expression operand; exclude cast-type and control-statement delimiters and documentation. Does not evaluate values, change source, infer taint or establish runtime flow or dispatch.

Data tables

Java expression wrappers

io.moderne.prethink.table.JavaExpressionWrappers

Direct written TypeCast, expression Parentheses or verified cast-operand ControlParentheses edges with actual UUIDs, independently nullable types and original source ranges. Preserve each physical occurrence and intermediate wrapper without flattening. Cast-type and control-statement delimiters and documentation are excluded. No evaluation, value identity, taint or runtime-flow claim.

Column	Description
Source path	Actual Java compilation-unit source path, without normalization.
Source set	Actual sole JavaSourceSet name; null for missing or duplicate source-set markers independently of project markers. Preserve empty values.
Project ID	Actual sole JavaProject marker UUID; null for missing or duplicate project markers. Never normalize or substitute a project name.
Project name	Actual sole JavaProject name, descriptive only. Preserve raw null and empty values; null for missing or duplicate project markers independently of source-set markers.
Source set ID	Actual sole JavaSourceSet marker UUID; null for missing or duplicate source-set markers independently of project markers.
Source file ID	Actual compilation-unit UUID within an externally verified VCS, commit, model-input and producer namespace. Equal CU IDs alone do not establish nested-node identity.
Wrapper ID	Actual explicit J.TypeCast, expression J.Parentheses or verified cast-operand J.ControlParentheses UUID. Preserve repeated equal-text occurrences; no synthetic identity or transitive unwrapping.
Wrapper kind	TypeCast, Parentheses or ControlParentheses, identifying the actual direct wrapper node. ControlParentheses is eligible only when its immediate parent tree is TypeCast and that parent's getExpression UUID equals this wrapper UUID. Cast-type, control-statement and call/formal delimiters are excluded.
Wrapper type	Opaque actual wrapper JavaType.toString; null for missing or whole Unknown type. Independently observed, never inferred from an operand or treated as a value.
Wrapper start line	Actual full wrapper start after its prefix, from unchanged Coordinates. Positive one-based line.
Wrapper start column	Actual full wrapper start after its prefix. Positive one-based UTF-16 column, tab one, CRLF-aware, from unchanged Coordinates.
Wrapper end line	Exclusive actual full wrapper end from unchanged Coordinates, without adding statement semicolon or right padding. Positive one-based line.
Wrapper end column	Exclusive actual full wrapper end. Positive one-based UTF-16 column, tab one, CRLF-aware, without added statement semicolon or right padding.
Operand ID	Actual direct TypeCast.getExpression, expression Parentheses.getTree or verified cast-operand ControlParentheses.getTree UUID, distinct from the wrapper. Never replace it with a descendant invocation or declaration identity.
Operand kind	Direct root label: Identifier, FieldAccess, MethodInvocation, NewClass, NewArray, Literal, TypeCast, Parentheses, ControlParentheses, Assignment, AssignmentOperation, Binary, Unary, Ternary, Lambda, MemberReference, ArrayAccess, InstanceOf or Other. No unwrapping or proxy class-name labels.
Operand type	Opaque actual direct operand JavaType.toString; null for missing or whole Unknown type. Literal-null type text may be the string null. Independent of wrapper type; no evaluation or type-equality requirement.
Operand start line	Actual full direct operand start after its prefix, from unchanged Coordinates. Positive one-based line.
Operand start column	Actual full direct operand start. Positive one-based UTF-16 column, tab one, CRLF-aware, from unchanged Coordinates.
Operand end line	Exclusive actual full direct operand end from unchanged Coordinates, without added statement semicolon or right padding. Positive one-based line.
Operand end column	Exclusive actual full direct operand end. Positive one-based UTF-16 column, tab one, CRLF-aware, from unchanged Coordinates.
