I'm trying to try out eclipse jdt/ast following this article.
This is the java code as an input:
class Hello
{
int hello()
{
int a = 0, b = 3;
/* hello */
{
b = a * 3;
}
return a;
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int z = 0, i = 3;
/* hello */
{
i = z * 3;
}
}
}
With ASTView, it shows that VariableDeclarationFragment
has corresponding binding.
However, in this visitor code for VariableDeclarationFragment node
, I always get null value for 4 local variables (a,b,z,i) as resolveBinding()
return value.
What's wrong with this? I use eclipse indigo.
This is the code to get the AST
private static CompilationUnit createCompilationUnit(String sourceFile) {
String source = readWithStringBuilder(sourceFile);
ASTParser parser = ASTParser.newParser(AST.JLS3);
parser.setKind(ASTParser.K_COMPILATION_UNIT);
parser.setSource(source.toCharArray()); // set source
parser.setResolveBindings(true); // we need bindings later on
return (CompilationUnit) parser.createAST(null /* IProgressMonitor */); // parse
}
This happens because of the following from the setResolveBindings docs:
Binding information is obtained from the Java model. This means that the compilation unit must be located relative to the Java model. This happens automatically when the source code comes from either setSource(ICompilationUnit) or setSource(IClassFile). When source is supplied by setSource(char[]), the location must be established explicitly by setting an environment using setProject(IJavaProject) or setEnvironment(String[], String[], String[], boolean) and a unit name setUnitName(String). Note that the compiler options that affect doc comment checking may also affect whether any bindings are resolved for nodes within doc comments.
That means you could use something like that (from your link):
IWorkspaceRoot root = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot();
IProject project = root.getProject("someJavaProject");
project.open(null /* IProgressMonitor */);
IJavaProject javaProject = JavaCore.create(project);
and add the setProject
call:
private static CompilationUnit createCompilationUnit(String sourceFile,
IJavaProject javaProject) {
String source = readWithStringBuilder(sourceFile);
ASTParser parser = ASTParser.newParser(AST.JLS3);
parser.setKind(ASTParser.K_COMPILATION_UNIT);
parser.setSource(source.toCharArray()); // set source
parser.setProject(javaProject);
parser.setResolveBindings(true); // we need bindings later on
return (CompilationUnit) parser.createAST(null /* IProgressMonitor */); // parse
}
The second approach (without setProject
):
private static CompilationUnit createCompilationUnit(String sourceFile,
String unitName) {
String source = readWithStringBuilder(sourceFile);
ASTParser parser = ASTParser.newParser(AST.JLS3);
parser.setKind(ASTParser.K_COMPILATION_UNIT);
parser.setSource(source.toCharArray()); // set source
String[] classpathEntries = ...;
String[] sourcepathEntries = ...;
parser.setEnvironment(classpathEntries, sourcepathEntries, null, true);
parser.setUnitName(unitName);
parser.setResolveBindings(true);
// optional
// parser.setBindingsRecovery(true);
return (CompilationUnit) parser.createAST(null /* IProgressMonitor */); // parse
}
Does this mean I have to import source codes I want to run ASTParser on in my current project?
Right now I am using ASTParser incoporating with UIMA framework.
In that framework, I could get source code in char[] only.
Don't know how to get their corresponding IJavaProject and UnitName, which is needed if I .setSource() to a char[].
I tried solving this using the following piece of code
protected static CompilationUnit parseStatements(String source) {
ASTParser parser = ASTParser.newParser(AST.JLS8);
parser.setSource(source.toCharArray());
parser.setKind(ASTParser.K_COMPILATION_UNIT);
parser.setResolveBindings(true);
parser.setEnvironment( // apply classpath
new String[] { "//home//user//Projects//SmartCopy//ASTParser_Test//bin" }, //
null, null, true);
parser.setUnitName("any_name");
final CompilationUnit cu = (CompilationUnit) parser.createAST(null);
return cu;
}
static void newcheckVariableDeclaration(){
String source ="package javaproject;" // package for all classes
+ "class Dummy {"
+ "int j;" //
+ " public void add(){"
+ "int x=0,y=0;"
+ "j=x+y;\n" //
+ " }" //
+ "}";
final CompilationUnit root = parseStatements(source);
root.accept(new ASTVisitor() {
public boolean visit(SimpleName node) {
System.out.println(node.toString());
if(node.resolveBinding() == null){
System.out.println(node.toString()+" is not declared");
}
else{
System.out.println(node.toString() + " is declared");
}
System.out.println();
return true;
}
});
