| aoqi@0 | 26 | /** |
| aoqi@0 | 27 | * Provides interfaces for tools which can be invoked from a program, |
| aoqi@0 | 28 | * for example, compilers. |
| aoqi@0 | 29 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 30 | * <p>These interfaces and classes are required as part of the |
| aoqi@0 | 31 | * Java™ Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE), |
| aoqi@0 | 32 | * but there is no requirement to provide any tools implementing them. |
| aoqi@0 | 33 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 34 | * <p>Unless explicitly allowed, all methods in this package might |
| aoqi@0 | 35 | * throw a {@linkplain java.lang.NullPointerException} if given a |
| aoqi@0 | 36 | * {@code null} argument or if given a |
| aoqi@0 | 37 | * {@linkplain java.lang.Iterable list or collection} containing |
| aoqi@0 | 38 | * {@code null} elements. Similarly, no method may return |
| aoqi@0 | 39 | * {@code null} unless explicitly allowed. |
| aoqi@0 | 40 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 41 | * <p>This package is the home of the Java programming language compiler framework. This |
| aoqi@0 | 42 | * framework allows clients of the framework to locate and run |
| aoqi@0 | 43 | * compilers from programs. The framework also provides Service |
| aoqi@0 | 44 | * Provider Interfaces (SPI) for structured access to diagnostics |
| aoqi@0 | 45 | * ({@linkplain javax.tools.DiagnosticListener}) as well as a file |
| aoqi@0 | 46 | * abstraction for overriding file access ({@linkplain |
| aoqi@0 | 47 | * javax.tools.JavaFileManager} and {@linkplain |
| aoqi@0 | 48 | * javax.tools.JavaFileObject}). See {@linkplain |
| aoqi@0 | 49 | * javax.tools.JavaCompiler} for more details on using the SPI. |
| aoqi@0 | 50 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 51 | * <p>There is no requirement for a compiler at runtime. However, if |
| aoqi@0 | 52 | * a default compiler is provided, it can be located using the |
| aoqi@0 | 53 | * {@linkplain javax.tools.ToolProvider}, for example: |
| aoqi@0 | 54 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 55 | * <p>{@code JavaCompiler compiler = ToolProvider.getSystemJavaCompiler();} |
| aoqi@0 | 56 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 57 | * <p>It is possible to provide alternative compilers or tools |
| aoqi@0 | 58 | * through the {@linkplain java.util.ServiceLoader service provider |
| aoqi@0 | 59 | * mechanism}. |
| aoqi@0 | 60 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 61 | * <p>For example, if {@code com.vendor.VendorJavaCompiler} is a |
| aoqi@0 | 62 | * provider of the {@code JavaCompiler} tool then its jar file |
| aoqi@0 | 63 | * would contain the file {@code |
| aoqi@0 | 64 | * META-INF/services/javax.tools.JavaCompiler}. This file would |
| aoqi@0 | 65 | * contain the single line: |
| aoqi@0 | 66 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 67 | * <p>{@code com.vendor.VendorJavaCompiler} |
| aoqi@0 | 68 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 69 | * <p>If the jar file is on the class path, VendorJavaCompiler can be |
| aoqi@0 | 70 | * located using code like this: |
| aoqi@0 | 71 | * |
| aoqi@0 | 72 | * <p>{@code JavaCompiler compiler = ServiceLoader.load(JavaCompiler.class).iterator().next();} |
