Re: AST to add a new class
Thanks paul,
This worked like a charm. I used the module node from one of the other
classes and added this parent level class along with all its static inner
classes

Hello
What is the right way to add a new class through an AST during the
Groovy compilation phase? What I am trying to do is this
* Compile N different classes
* During the compile process, create a new class for each of these N
classes that denotes how it should be serialized (for example)
* Add these classes as sub classes of one master class, called Types
For example:-
/ These are my classes /
Class Car {
}
class Cycle {
}
/* This class must be auto generated with all of its
inner classes ***/
class Types {
static class CarSeralizer extends TypeReference {}
static class CycleSerializer extends TypeReference {}
}
How do I achieve this through ASTs ?

Re: AST to add a new class
Hello paul
Thank you for your email
Yes the inner class mechanism works, but I want to declare a parent class
dynamically with static inner classes added dynamically
With inner classes I jave access to the module node and the source unit.
Where do I get these for a parent level class?

Re: AST to add a new class
The Builders and Sortable AST do something similar and use:
