getArgumentNames

public List<String> getArgumentNames()

Argument names. The result of parsing is an instance of CallTarget that can be invoked without or with some parameters. If the invocation requires some arguments, and the TruffleLanguage.ParsingRequest.getSource() references them, it is essential to name them. Example that uses the argument names:

public void parseWithParams(TruffleLanguage.Env env) {
    Source multiply = Source.newBuilder("js",
                    "a * b",
                    "mul.js").build();
    CallTarget method = env.parsePublic(multiply, "a", "b");
    Number fortyTwo = (Number) method.call(6, 7);
    assert 42 == fortyTwo.intValue();
    Number ten = (Number) method.call(2, 5);
    assert 10 == ten.intValue();
}

Returns:

symbolic names for parameters of CallTarget.call(java.lang.Object...)
