JSP Parser
Modisco JSP Parser has been developed using an ANTLR grammar It can support JSP file, as well as HTML files, TAG files, and JSP/TAG fragment files
Updating the Grammar
Non XML Conformity
The ANTLR Grammar take in consideration the non XML conformity of a JSP file. Knowing that it can contain html or javascript tags, an opened tag is not necessarily closed by one
Example :
<img src="./img/myImage.png">
In order to build the inheritance tree, we had to store all the founded tags, and each time closing one is detected, re build the inheritance tree.
Example :
<p>
<img src="./img/myImage.png">
</p>
on when
is detected, and so on.User Code in the generated one
Because we do not know if a tag will be closed later in the code, we had to manually implement some text concatenation.
Let's say we meet a new opening tag:
<p>
This is some HTML content
</p>
We cannot declared a rule "'<p>' 'any letter' '</p>'" because </p> might never appears, or a JSP expression could be there. That is why we concatenate manually the potentially present content after an opening tag, and wait till we found a known token.
