decoding generics in signature [message #526033]

Hi all

I am trying to get the fully qualified name of generic types, for instance

"QArrayList<QObservator;>;" should be read as "java.util.ArrayList<fr.emn.example.Observator>"

There are several methods about that in Signature of core JDT but
it seems rather complex to use.
What help me could be an example or better a program doing this!

best regards

You cannot do that using the java model.
The java model doesn't contain resolved signatures. If you describe what you are trying to do, I might be able to tell you how to do it.

Hi Olivier

I want to analyse Java source code and to extract type information,
for signature, fields, array, generics and so on.
I was presuming that JDT could help me here, and in fact I known to extract
some information.
But I have problems with the various encoding, resolved types, etc.
If there is a better and simpler way to do that of course I am interested.

regards

You can use the DOM/AST API with bindings if you care about resolved information.
