---++ News

This is a minor update of Java-front, a package that provides
the syntax-related support for implementing Java transformation
systems. 

----+++ Wrapper strategies for Java to Java transformation tools

Added the long requested wrapper strategies for creating Java to Java
transformation tools.

<verbatim>
	 io-java2java-wrap(s) =
	 io-java2java-wrap(extra-opts, s) =
	 io-java2java-wrap(extra-opts, usage, about, s) =
</verbatim>

Creating a source to source tool is now as easy as:

<verbatim>
	 module foo
	 imports libstratego-lib libjava-front
	 strategies

	 main =
		io-java2java-wrap(foo)
 
	 foo =
	 // some AST transformation
</verbatim>

<verbatim>
  $ strc -i foo.str $(strcflags stratego-lib java-front)
  $ ./foo -i Foo.java -o Bar.java
</verbatim>
 

----+++ Pretty printer available as library
  
  The java-front pretty-printer can now be used as a
  separately compiled library.

----+++ Java embedding

Renovation of the Java embedding definitions. The preferred embedding is now
no longer using a prefixed version of Java, but a mix version of Java.

The preferred definition for embedding Java is now
EmbeddedJavaMix.def. This module is parameterized with two symbols:

	* The context of Java.
	* The expression non-terminal of the host language.

If you use StrategoRenamed, then the import can be something like
this:

<verbatim>
  languages/java/EmbeddedJavaMix[Java StrategoTerm]
</verbatim>

The advantage of having EmbeddedJavaMix is that you can easily embed
multiple languages, even if more than one of these languages involve
Java. Suppose that you have a language Foo that extends Java:

<verbatim>
  module Foo
  imports
  languages/java/JavaMix[Foo] 
  
  exports
  ...
</verbatim>
 
  and Foo is embedded in Stratego:

<verbatim>
  module StrategoFoo
  imports
  languages/stratego/StrategoMix[Stratego]
  Foo

  exports
  ...
</verbatim>

In this situation the composer of the embeddings can decide if he (she
is unlikely) wants to support the variables and anti-quotations in Foo
quotations and if Foo constructs should be supported in Java
quotations.
  
If this should be allowed, then EmbeddedJavaMix can be imported with
the parameters [Foo Term[[Stratego]]]. If this should not be allowed,
then a different first parameter can be chosen.


----+++ AST changes
  
There have been some minor changes is the syntax definition that change
the Java AST to previous versions, and therefore might break existing 
code. 
  
	* Replaced ClassName with TypeName. This changes the representation of:
		* Qualified super field access
		* Qualified super method invocation
		* Qualified this.
	* All these constructs are now qualified by a TypeName instead of a
	 ClassName.
	* Change in modifiers: Anno is no longer a Mod
	* GenericStaticMethod has been renamed to GenericMethod and the prefix
	 of the GenericMethod is now an AmbName, not a TypeName. This
	 represents the syntactical ambiguity better.
