You can't extend a concrete class and expect Java to call your versions of methods, but you can implement the NodeVisitor interface in Ruby and it will work fine.

I found EclipseShell http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/  to be
particularly useful for messing with the RDT model, because it allows to
work with a live RDT at runtime.  Here is a screencast
http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/screencasts/rdthelpersEclipseShell.html
that might be useful.  I think I used SymbolIndex there too;
(Disclaimer:  I'm the maintainer of EclipseShell).

BTW:  have you considered prototyping your code in JRuby? Might be a
problem with performance for live update things, but if your code can be
run by the Builder, a little speed downgrade wouldn't hurt too much.
While it'd probably be best to write the whole code in JRuby, there are
a few problems, like the fact that you can't extend a Java class from
JRuby (I think you wrote something about extending one of the JRuby
Visitors in your Blog).
