I am developing a plugin that does code generation into existing Java code. I am having a difficult time accessing information above the level of Javadoc APIs about some aspects of the JDT core. It appears that the "JDT Developer Plugin Guide" provided with Eclipse has some large gaps in its coverage, and there is scant other articles covering these topics other than scattered pieces of info in the newsgroups. * The "unresolved" Java model obtained from source has some major limitations. This need to be documented more and methods to resolve model elements provided. * For a qualified classname, how does one obtain an IType for it? * What are the steps involved to go from a IField or IMethod to find an IType instance representing its type? These types of issues must surely be encountered by anyone attempting to programatically work with source code within Eclipse, so better documentation would be very useful.
I will also add: *if* standard utlity methods exist to perform these types of transformations, could their location be documented as well?
Moving to JDT/Doc
Srikanth, can someone in JDT Core check whether this is still the case and update the doc if needed?
