[Moose-dev] VerveineJ v. 1.0 released

Hi all, We have been mentionning it in past emails on the list, but we are pleased to announce officially the first release of VerveineJ : a Java to MSE exporter. You can get it from https://gforge.inria.fr/projects/verveinej/ Anonymous checkout is possible with the command: svn checkout svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/verveinej/verveine.extractor.java VerveineJ is based on the Eclipse JDT parser (JDT = Java Development Toolkit) and binding resolver. However, you don't need to install eclipse to run it, the necessary libraries are included. VerveineJ can be ran more or less as a java compiler, you specify the source path, the class path, possibly the java version (1.2, 1.3, ...) etc. and it should create an "output.mse" file with all your entities and their relationship (inheritances, accesses, references, and invocations). A shell script "verveine.sh" should help the new comers to execute their first export: $ verveinej <some-Java-sourcedir> VerveineJ has already been used to create an MSE model of Eclipse (v. 3.1): >346000 FAMIX.Entities ; >7800 classes, >53500 methods, >147000 invocation, etc. And of course it is free software, so you can get your hands dirty and hack it to do what you need. It is as simple as visiting an AST (i.e. Abstract Syntax Tree, of course!). nicolas PS: If I can find the time to get CDT (Eclipse C/C++ Development Toolkit) to work in batch mode, a VerveineC is planned in the not-too-distant-I-hope future.
