Implementing extended java languages by "subclassing jdt" ? [message #198674] Tue, 15 March 2005 16:14 Go to next message

I would like to be able to provide a plugin that would extend the Java
Language with a few exstra features (i.e. open up for strict supersets of
java). One use-case could be a plugin that enabled full IDE support for Java
extended with c-like preprocessor directives (for Java MIDP or other highly
demanding tasks where preprocessors are ideed useful).

I would like to still provide ALL the nice comfort of JDT features like code
completion, refactoring etc BUT without recreating the wheel.

For this it would be extremely good if one could "subclass" the JDT in some
way (for example that would involve being able to extend the parser, the AST
and the back-end).

Yes, I know I am asking for the wold - but is it possible ?

You might take a look at the Eclipse LDT project proposal, and at
eclipse.technology.ldt.
