This package contains a Java 1.5 Parser with AST generation and visitor support. 
The AST records the source code structure, javadoc and comments. Soon will be 
possible change the AST nodes or create new ones to modify source code like refactoring.
This parser is based on Sreenivasa Viswanadha Java 1.5 parser.

Version history
---------------

1.0.6 (2009-01-11)
- Issue 11 fixed: changed method get/setPakage to get/setPackage in the class CompilationUnit
- Created new visitor adapter to help AST modification: ModifierVisitorAdapter
- Changed visitor adapters to abstract  

1.0.5 (2008-10-26)
- Created simplified constructors in the nodes of the AST (without positional arguments) 
- Created ASTHelper class with some helpful methods (more methods are still needed)

1.0.4 (2008-10-07)
- Moved to javacc 4.1.
- The java_1_5.jj can be build alone without compilation errors

1.0.3 (2008-09-06)
- Removed SuperMemberAccessExpr class, it was no longer used
- Removed the methods get/setTypeArgs() from ArrayCreationExpr, this node shouldn't have these methods.
- Fixed the bug with start/end position of the nodes IntegerLiteralMinValueExpr and LongLiteralMinValueExpr  
- The methods get/setAnnotations() from all BodyDeclaration subclasses were pushed down to BodyDeclaration class 

1.0.2 (2008-07-20)
  Issue fixed: Issue 1: Add support for editing AST nodes or create new ones

1.0.0 (2008-06-25)
- Changed version numbering, starting version 1.0.0
- Javadoc done for packages:
    - japa.parser
    - japa.parser.ast
- Corrected bug when parsing in multithread:
