Re: [forge-dev] JavaType vs JavaSource

Something like java.lang.String because it's in the rt.jar and you don't have the sources ? Because most of the visitors "visit our code" (i.e. the code in the project we are generating to with Forge). So that would mean that most of the visistors should then use JavaSource ? And in terms of performance, is there a difference ? Is it "faster" to parse source code rather then byte code ?

JavaType should be used when the object might be a compiled java type vs when you have the source code of a Java type (JavaSource). In practice they don't differ much but afaik this was the main difference. > > PS: Roaster does not support parsing of compiled java types yet, but the model is ready for this feature when it becomes available. > > > >> Em 13/03/2015, às 18:19, Antonio Goncalves <antonio.mailing(a)gmail.com&gt; escreveu: >> > >> Hi all, >> >> I am having a look at some code and realize that I don't understand the subtle difference between JavaType and JavaSource in certain cases.
