kandi X-RAY | jexast Summary
jexast is a Java library. jexast has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has low support. However jexast build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.
Jexast allows creating Java AST Nodes with Plain JDT. Jexast stands for "Extraction of Java ASTs". To get the AST of Java files, there is the famous JDT class ASTParser. However, it requires to embed a large part of Eclipse to get it compiling and running (*). Otherwise one gets errors, for instance: "The type org.eclipse.core.runtime.IProgressMonitor cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class". It always seemed strange to me that one needs all Eclipse Jar files just to get an AST, and I had good reasons to believe one can overcome this. First, because Eclipse JDT can compile Java code in command line, only using ''jdt.core''. Second, Spoon can build an advanced Java AST only using ''jdt.core''. My PhD student Benoit Cornu did a great job to extract the essence of AST extraction from Spoon. Jexast can be used in one line: CompilationUnitDeclaration[] units = AstExtractor.createAST("./src/jexast/AstCompiler.java");.
