Enclosing class:

StandardTags

public final class StandardTags.StatementTag
extends Object

Marks program locations that represent a statement of a language.

Use case descriptions:

• Debugger: Marks program locations where ordinary stepping should halt. The debugger will halt just before a code location is executed that is marked with this tag.

  In most languages, this means statements are distinct from expressions and only one node representing the statement should be tagged. Subexpressions are typically not tagged so that for example a step-over operation will stop at the next independent statement to get the desired behavior.
