One more question. How do I get the new source string? Because if I
use #sourceCode I get old code, if I use #printString it also puts
extra parenthesis.
#formattedCode

Hi, I need to change source code of a method by for example
adding a pragma. Can I just manipulate it’s AST without
carrying about source code anchors? Because it seems that I
have to set from/to values and it looks painful.
I would do the change, print the code and recompile it… not nice,
but for now the easiest.
I conccur with Marcus. It's good enough; RB works this way.
Note that you can change the AST without bothering with the from/to
stuff, in most cases (except syntax errors messages?).
(this way they old AST gets garbage collected and the new one has
all the offsets into the text correct).
It's a lot easier than trying to shift the offsets depending on
what you have added/not added.
I would like to explore if we can’t build a system where
everything we manipulate is ASTs…
You're the compiler guy: everything is an AST :)
