JSDT Extension to parse java script comments. [message #1049679]

Hello forum,

last week I started to develop a plugin for eclipse to parse a special kind of comments contained in some file types (including batch files, html and various scripts) at different logical levels (file, function, etc).

So far I can parse text files and html to show these comments as items in my extension of the project explorer.

Now, I like to extend jsdt to parse these comments, add them as properties to the related function and embedd the functionality of the "script explorer" to my own view.
I read www.eclipsecon.org/2008/sub/attachments/Extending_the_JavaScript_Development_Toolkit.pdf but the example doesn't work.

What do I have to do to extend jsdt?
I tried to extend the DefaultInferrenceProvider and the InferEngine but eclipse ignores my classes.
Is this extension definition correct?

<extension point="org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.inferrenceSupport">
<inferrenceSupport class="plugin.files.parser.javascript.MyInferProvider"/>
</extension>

This topic is really new for me.
Please help me to achieve this purpose.

Kind regards,
Michael

Check your Eclipse Application launch configuration (Run->Run Configurations...) and make sure that the Configuration tab is set to clear the configuration space. Information from older versions of your plugin.xml may be cached.

Hello,

I checked my launch configuration and now my InferEngine is used by the framework. Thank you!

But how can I access a comment like "// Example comment" and how can I add a new Element to the tree view of the "Script Explorer" which represents this comment?
I tried to override some visit methods of ASTVisitor but

public boolean visit(IJsDoc doc)

is never called.

I'm interessted in comments of functions and global comments at the beginning of the script.

Hi,

I'm also looking for solution, but:

Currently you cannot extend AST/InferedTypes during inferrencing
Add new elements into outliner is not possible also
JSDoc is only avaiable in visit if is before function, field, variable declaration and this is not raw comment
Non JSDoc comments are never in AST
But, you have table with coordinates of all comments in file
