Hello Sir

Yesterday I had posted a message regarding how to get the method references using ast. But till now I have not got any response.Could you please help me getting the things done. Actually in my application am taking a single file and making compilation unit out of that and doing some changes.
When am trying to get the parent the last am getting is package. But am not getting the Iproject. I want to get the method call references means where ever the method is invoked that class and line and column no. Could you please help me getting this. I tried to do with workspace. But again its hectic as I dont want to open another workspace instance and within the same instance I want to get from the compilation unit. Please help me getting the info. How the call hierarchy works in eclipse like that.

Thanks

I'm not sure where you posted that message, but if the Call Hierarchy is already doing what you want, look at its sources and see how it's accomplishing that.

No Sir . actually am doing something in my application using ast. So how can i get the method references using that AST. I mean suppose I have one method m1() in Employee class and the same method might have been invoked from student and address class also. so how can i get the method reference where it has been invoked. means which class and line no and column no.
