Hi.
I want to add my own parse rules to the grammar file Java.g.
But i can't find documentation or tutorial about grammar in JDT.

First, this file is written for use by jikespg [1][2]. I'm not aware of any user documentation for this parser generator, but an eclipse plugin exists [3], that should assist you in editing a .g file.

After editing java.g you'd need to follow this HowTo[4] to re-generate the parser infra structure, into which you'd implement additional consumeXYZ() methods.
The HowTo is a bit more involved than needed, if you are on Linux, you may adapt and use a shell script from the Object Teams project to automate these steps [5] (beware that comments in that script are in German ...).

HTH,
Stephan
