How to resolve bindings for statically imported methods [message #1439333] Tue, 07 October 2014 04:12 Go to next message

I'm using ASTParser to analyze source code.

When I call resolveMethodBinding() in MethodInvocation class, it returns null when the MethodInvocation instance is for statically imported method invocations. It works fine for all the other invocations. What am I missing?

import static foo.bar.Other.methodA;

public class Sample {
    public void invoke() {
        Other.methodA(); // Binding is resolved for this one ...
        methodA(); // but not for this one.
    }
}


I've tried with following versions of org.eclipse.jdt.core.
- 3.10.0
- 3.6.51

Hi Tai,
Please see:

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/language/static-import.html

"The static import declaration is analogous to the normal import declaration. Where the normal import declaration imports classes from packages, allowing them to be used without package qualification, the static import declaration imports static members from classes, allowing them to be used without class qualification".

Thanks

Hi, shankha. Thanks for your reply.

But I don't get the relation between my question and this article. Could you give a brief explanation for me?

Thanks.

Sorry. I misunderstood the question. I did not read it properly. I will come up with a test case and check if I can reproduce your issue. If you have code which shows the issue please post it.

Following is the parsing code.
package ast.sample;

import java.io.*;
import java.nio.charset.*;
import java.nio.file.*;

import org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.*;

public class TestASTParser {

	private static final String PROJECT_ROOT = System.getProperty("user.dir");
	private static final Path SOURCE_PATH = Paths.get(PROJECT_ROOT, "/src/foo/bar/Sample.java");
	private static final String[] CLASS_PATH_ENTRIES = new String[] {PROJECT_ROOT + "/bin"};

	public static void main(String... args) {

		ASTParser parser = ASTParser.newParser(AST.JLS8);
		parser.setKind(ASTParser.K_COMPILATION_UNIT);
		parser.setEnvironment(CLASS_PATH_ENTRIES, null, null, true);
		parser.setResolveBindings(true);
		parser.setSource(readAsCharArray(SOURCE_PATH));
		parser.setUnitName(SOURCE_PATH.toString());

		ASTNode ast = parser.createAST(null);
		CompilationUnit unit = (CompilationUnit) ast;

		unit.accept(new ASTVisitor() {
			@Override
			public boolean visit(MethodInvocation node) {
				int lineNumber = unit.getLineNumber(node.getStartPosition());
				System.out.println(lineNumber + ": "  + node + " -> " + node.resolveMethodBinding());
				return true;
			};
		});
	}

	private static char[] readAsCharArray(Path path) {
		try (BufferedReader reader = Files.newBufferedReader(path, StandardCharsets.UTF_8)) {
			StringBuilder buffer = new StringBuilder();
			int c = -1;
			while ((c = reader.read()) != -1) {
				buffer.append((char) c);
			}
			return buffer.toString().toCharArray();
		} catch (IOException e) {
			throw new UncheckedIOException(e);
		}
	}
}


And following is the target source file.
package foo.bar;

import static foo.bar.Other.methodA;

public class Sample {
    public void invoke() {
        Other.methodA(); // Binding is resolved for this one ...
        methodA(); // but not for this one.
    }
}


When I execute the first program, I get the following result which indicates that it had failed to resolve binding for the second invocation of methodA.
7: Other.methodA() -> public static void methodA() 
8: methodA() -> null
