de.monochromata.anaphors 32.0.127 API

Expressions that refer using information previously introduced in a text are said to function as anaphors. This framework implements different kinds of anaphors for Java in a parser-independent way. It can be used by parser-, compiler- and tool implementors to add anaphors to their tools.

Because the anaphors are related to reference, the two main packages are de.monochromata.anaphors.ast and de.monochromata.anaphors.ast.reference. The API provides a high level of abstraction: instances of the APIs main types Referent, ASTBasedAnaphora and RelatedExpression are generated by a set a replaceable and parser-independent strategies. The strategies use service provider interfaces (SPIs) from the de.monochromata.anaphors.ast.spi that are implemented by parsers and other tools that support anaphors.
