Access information about existing Java projects in the workspace [message #60946]

Hi,

I'm trying to build a plugin which displays various informations about
Java classes for a project in the local workspace - e.g. javadocs or
class details (modifiers, fields, methods, etc..). Is there a public API
for the JDT where I can get this kind of data?

Thanks,
Alex

JDT Core has those APIs:

I'd get the workspace from ResourcesPlugin and than you can use the
JDTCore class to get an IJavaProject from a workspace project. That
should be enough to get you started.
