Hello all!
This is my first post on the forums. I'm interested in
possibly creating a refactoring tool for D for my MSc
dissertation (I notice there is currently no refactoring in
D?). I wanted to ask if this is possible with D's current
state?
More specifically:
- Can I easily access things such as the AST?
This should save you a lot of time:
https://github.com/Hackerpilot/libdparse
I've had a look around and it seems promising, however are
there any usage examples poking around somewhere I could look
at? Also, does the produced AST have location information?
Not all AST nodes have location information right now. I've
mostly been adding that as I need it for other projects. Any
field of an AST class that has a type "Token" will have line,
column and byte offsets.
These projects use libdparse:
