Re: AST Browser?

Hi Bernardo,

What do you understand as an "AST browser"? A special inspector for AST nodes?

Re: AST Browser?

i dont know how to answer.
so i would show an example
http://groovy.codehaus.org/Groovy+Console

http://groovy.codehaus.org/download/attachments/36800/astbrowser.png?version=1&modificationDate=1238156032299

The groovy console has an AST browser, and i was wondering where the AST Browser for Pharo is.
I played with the RBParser to parse an expression and inspect the AST tree, but i could not find a nice browser( or inspector )

Thanks

Re: AST Browser?

How different is from getting the ast of a method and exploring it?
So may be you do not know how to get an abstract syntax tree of a method?

Re: AST Browser?

In reply to this post by vonbecmann

Indeed, then

(RBParser parseExpression: '1 + 2') explore

is probably the closest you get.

Re: AST Browser?

No, not a stupid question.

In the screenshot you showed there was also semantic information displayed. You can get that in Pharo too, but you need to tell the AST in which context to resolve it:

(RBParser parseExpression: 'x + y')

annotateInClass: Point;

explore

Cheers,

Lukas
