Given an AST node, I can use getParent()
to get its parent AST node. But, how can
I get its previous closest AST sibling node?
Thanks.

It could be simpler if you know the type of the ASTNode.
If you want to do it generically, look at org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.NodeFinder and org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.NodeFinder.NodeFinderVisitor. You could either use this or have your visitor do something like this.
