Class Eclipse

java.lang.Object

gate.util.Javac

gate.util.compilers.Eclipse

All Implemented Interfaces:

GateConstants

public class Eclipse
extends Javac

This class compiles a set of java sources using the JDT compiler from the Eclipse project. Unlike the Sun compiler, this compiler can load dependencies directly from the GATE class loader, which (a) makes it faster, (b) means the compiler will work when GATE is loaded from a classloader other than the system classpath (for example within a Tomcat web application), and (c) allows it to compile code that depends on classes defined in CREOLE plugins, as well as in the GATE core. This is the default compiler for GATE version 3.0.

Method Detail

compile

public void compile(Map<String,String> sources,
           GateClassLoader classLoader)
             throws GateException

Compiles a set of java sources using the Eclipse Java compiler and loads the compiled classes in the gate class loader.

Specified by:

compile in class Javac

Parameters:

sources - a map from fully qualified classname to java source

classLoader - the classloader into which the sources should be compiled. Note that this classloader must also have access to all the classes required to compile the sources.

Throws:

GateException - in case of a compilation error or warning. In the case of warnings the compiled classes are loaded before the error is raised.
