JaMoPP can parse Java source and byte code into EMF-based models and vice versa. It preserves source formatting and can be used for code analysis and refactoring.

Getting Started

• In Eclipse, after installing JaMoPP, you can load Java files (.java and .class files) with any EMF-based tool similar to how you load other EMF models.
• For stand-alone usage, use the code in JaMoPPC.java as a starting point.
• A detailed overview of JaMoPP is provided in this report.

Download/Installation

Currently, JaMoPP only supports a direct inclusion of its sources into Eclipse.

1. Use Eclipse Modeling Tools 2019-09 or 2019-12 (no other versions were tested) with Java 8.
2. Install EMFText available at "http://update.emftext.org/release".
3. Clone this repository.
4. Import all existing projects in "JaMoPP/Core/*", "JaMoPP/Tests/*", "JaMoPP/Utils/*", and "JaMoPP/Eclipse-Integration/*".
5. In "org.emftext.language.java/metamodel/", right-click on "java.genmodel" and choose "Open With - Genmodel Editor".
6. In the opened window, use the icon in the upper right corner to choose "Generate Model + Edit". This automatically generates the model code.
7. Right-click on "org.emftext.language.java/metamodel/java.cs" and choose "Generate Text Resource". This will generate the parser.
8. In "org.emftext.language.java.resource.java.ui/src-gen/org.emftext.language.java.resource.java.ui/JavaOutlinePageTreeViewerComparator.java", correct the compilation error by applying the proposed solution and saving the file afterwards.
9. Now, JaMoPP should be usable.
