#5 Refactoring via XSLT Transformation of AST Tree

[warren crossing]

I think you could map the AST tree to XML then easily do refactoring using a standard technology like XSLT.

Then people could write refactoring snippets easily and quickly.

Furthermore you could easily store the AST Tree in binary XML form in the Database.

I attempt to write a patch to do this.

I came across this other project which could be instrumental.

by the way transmogrify compiles under java1.6 and appears to work with ANTLR 2.7.7
although the tests use old junit code, I would like a transmogrifier to update the test code from assert to assertBoolean
