PHP Parser [message #652205]

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a program for static analysis of PHP scripts. I want to use eclipse internal classes for parsing the file and generating the AST. But I can't find any sort of documentation regarding org.eclipse.php.internal or similar namespaces. For example, I'm trying the following for getting the program constructs:

import org.eclipse.php.internal.core.*;
import org.eclipse.php.internal.core.ast.nodes.AST;
import org.eclipse.php.internal.core.ast.nodes.Program;
...
Reader reader = new FileReader("test.php");
AST a = new AST(reader, PHPVersion.PHP5, true, true);
Program p = new Program(a);

But it simply does nothing. I need a sort of documentation, and article etc about how to use the pdt classes. Any idea?
Alternatively, do you know any other documented Php parser/ast generator in java?

Thanks in advance.

Here is a detailed document about exactly the same information:

http://www.eclipse.org/pdt/articles/ast/PHP_AST.html

Will be happy to hear about your analysis it may be relevant to this project as well?

Thanks Roy,
Though I'd already read that article, I couldn't really use it since some of things there seems to be deprecated. But your reply encouraged me to reconsider it, again and this time it magically worked(Maybe because I have downloaded some additional JARs).
I'm still at the beginning phase but I will try to develop it as soon as I can. I will publish a link in this forum as soon as it is finished.

Hi,

I am trying to write a program that parses a PHP file and detects all sql queries in that file. I am a beginner and I am not sure, where is the right point to start with Embarrassed

. I also read the article linked by Roy and some examples were running well in my eclipse, but not all examples and i couldn't got the AST View plug-in running in my eclipse 3.6. I doubt if the AST is enough to solve my problem.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get all sql queries from the AST or should I go another way to get the sql queries?

Thanks in advance.
