Re: [pmd-devel] Parse ast generated by PMD

[Juan M. S. D. <jua...@gm...>]

Hi Vikram,

Is this to be done as part of a PMD rule, or for a different application?

If it's a PMD rule, you should be looking at
https://pmd.github.io/latest/apidocs/net/sourceforge/pmd/lang/apex/rule/AbstractApexRule.html
which is a visitor on the AST you can implement to look at ASTUserClass
nodes and get their names.

If this is for a different application, you can use that parser to obtain a
root node for the compilation unit, and then use
https://pmd.github.io/latest/apidocs/net/sourceforge/pmd/lang/apex/ast/ApexParserVisitorAdapter.html
to write a visitor on that tree. However, you may opt to use Apex Jorje
directly instead of PMD's abstractions over it.

Regards
