Hi All,


Is there an available Java grammar which preserves comments in an
output AST tree? I know there are plenty of java grammars out there,
but all ignore comments. I'm happy to use any tool providing I can
gain access to the comments in the tree.


My end goal is to parse commented-out extensions to the java language:


class /*#immutable*/ Blah {


public /*#input*/ int x;
public /*#result*/ int y;


}


Any suggestions appreciated,


Matt
