Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to parse a Java/Class file that is
external to the project and build an AST?
or how can I read the Index information from outside eclipse.
This can help is creating an index database external to eclipse.
thanks

I would not push for that. First reason is that to resolve a binding
you always need a context that at least include java.lang.Object. All
bindings are resolved or none, but not simply a subset.
Second reason is consistency. How do you know which bindings could be
available? I prefer to have them all or none.
Third reason: This API clearly states that no binding are available.
* This method does not compute binding information; all
<code>resolveBinding</code>
* methods applied to nodes of the resulting AST return
<code>null</code>.
If you want bindings, then use another API :-).
