News

We are pleased to announce the first official release of java-front.

Java-front is a package that adds support for Java meta-programming to StrategoXT. It contains a handcrafted SDF grammar for Java as it appears in J2SE 5.0, Stratego signatures generated from this grammar, and a handcrafted pretty printer that supports comment preserving transformations.

The Java syntax definition and pretty-printer are very well tested. Java-front is able to parse and pretty-print (round trip is checked) all the Java sources in the GNU Classpath and Sun's JDK runtime libraries.

Contributions

We would like to thank the numerous users of java-front before it was actually released. Their feedback has been very useful.
