The Java™ programming language compiler API is a set of interfaces that describes the

functions provided by a compiler. This API has three

main objectives:

|
|
|

<li>Allow invocation of a compiler from a program using
|
|
|
12 |
standardized interfaces.</li>
|
|
|
13 |
|
|
|
14 |
<li>Provide interfaces enabling the compiler to report diagnostics in a
|
|
|
15 |
structured way.</li>
|
|
|
16 |
|
|
|
17 |
<li>Provide interfaces enabling clients of the compiler to override
|
|
|
18 |
how file objects are found. "File objects" is a file
|
|
|
19 |
abstraction.</li>
