I'm developing a plugin for Eclipse similar to the AJDT, in that it is for

point where I'm ready to begin implementing a DOM for my language.
I was wondering what approach was used for the AJDT in developing the DOM.
Was the JDT's DOM somehow used as well, and is generating the DOM done
using the compiler's AST or using a lightweight parser?
Thank you in advance for all the help.

There are two areas to tackle, building a compiler for your Java-like
language, and then adding support for new elements to the JDT model so
that they surface in the Eclipse UI (plus of course associated editors,
wizards etc). In the compiler case, AspectJ clones the JDT compiler and
extends it as necessary. This includes extending the JDT parser.
