JSDT DOM and bindings

Starting from Eclipse Oxygen, JSDT parsing is done with ClosureCompiler. After CC parsing, a converter transforms the CC AST into the JSDT core DOM AST. Then, we use bindings to consume the DOM model and provide content assist, code completion, etc.

This page explains: the ClosureCompiler AST, the DOM AST and the Bindings to the Eclipse IDE

Other JSDT Architectural information is reported in the parent page JSDT/Architecture.

ClosureCompiler AST

Closure Compiler documentation is mostly in its code. To understand how it works, we should look at the CC source, at few documentation pages, and at the work done when moving JSDT to ClosureCompiler.

like using CC Java API, CC tutorials, ...

DOM AST

The AST class The package org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.dom contains the class


This is the AST used in JSDT core. It contains all the information needed to create outline, for content assist etc..

Bindings

This part is about the bindings needed to show the model in the outline, to provide content assist, indexing etc.

Other Notes

See commit https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/57504/ (M.Istria) to see the new outline
