Results for pkg-version-parser

A utility for extracting the version of a package in various programming languages

==== QDox - http://qdox.codehaus.org QDox is a high speed, small footprint parser for extracting class/interface/method definitions from Java source files complete with JavaDoc @tags. It is designed to be used by active code generators or documentation tools. QDox is a Java library. Therefore this RubyGem needs JRuby. ==== Quickstart Step 1: Load your Java sources. In JRuby (or +jirb+) write: require 'qdox' builder = QDox::JavaDocBuilder.new builder.add_source_tree(java.io.File.new(".") (Source: http://qdox.codehaus.org/usage.html) Step 2: Inspect the source model. src = builder.sources.first pkg = src.package puts pkg.name # e.g. "com.bla.foo" imports = src.imports # => e.g. ["java.util.List", "java.util.Set"] some_class = src.classes.first # => a QDox::Model::JavaClass # output the javadoc comment for the first method in some_class puts some_class.methods.first.comment (Source: http://qdox.codehaus.org/model.html) As you may have noticed, the Java packages used have been aliased to shorter Ruby Module names: The Java package com.thoughtworks.qdox is the Ruby module QDox etc. ==== In a Nutshell A custom built parser has been built using JFlex and BYacc/J. These have been chosen because of their proven performance and they require no external libraries at runtime. The parser skims the source files only looking for things of interest such as class/interface definitions, import statements, JavaDoc and member declarations. The parser ignores things such as actual method implementations to avoid overhead (while in method blocks, curly brace counting suffices). The end result of the parser is a very simple document model containing enough information to be useful. ==== License Apache License, Version 2.0 QDox was created by Joe Walnes, Aslak Hellesoy, Paul Hammant, Mike Williams, Mauro Talevi, Robert Scholte, and others.
