Java Parser and Abstract Syntax Tree

This package contains a Java 1.8 Parser with AST generation and visitor support.

The AST records the source code structure. You can analyze source code for any purpose. It is possible to change the AST nodes or create new ones to modify the source code.

When you need not only the text from the source code but you also need type information, you can use the Java Symbol Solver project.

How To Compile Sources

If you have checkout the project from GitHub you can build the project with maven using:

mvn clean install

If you checkout the sources and want to view the project in an IDE, it is best to first generate some of the source files; otherwise you will get many compilation complaints in the IDE. (mvn clean install already does this for you.)

mvn javacc:javacc

History

This parser is based on work by Sreenivasa Viswanadha and Júlio Vilmar Gesser. The original project, now inactive, was originally hosted at Google Code and supported only parsing Java 1.5.

The project now supports parsing Java 1.8 and aims to continue support for features in future versions of the Java language.
