J2Ada translates a Java valid source code in Ada source code. In this first version, a large part of Java syntax is translated. But, up to now, both specification and body parts of the generated Ada code become valid with few manual modifcations.
- arbmgr.adb
- arbmgr.ads
- basicdef.adb
- basicdef.ads
- fichsrc.adb
- fichsrc.ads
- importmgr.adb
- importmgr.ads
- insrc.adb
- insrc.ads
- j2ada.adb
- javaseq.adb
- javaseq.ads
- javaseq.auto
- javaseq.in
- objpar.ads
- objsrc.adb
- objsrc.ads
- outsrc.adb
- outsrc.ads
(From J2Ada on GitHub).
The sequencer unit in Ada is already created: javaseq.adb and javaseq.ads. If necessary the sequencer may be modified in the file javaseq.auto containing Java syntax and regenerated with the Automate sequencer compiler.
Download the sequencer compiler from Automate on GiHub.
Compile the program genauto then use it to generate the Ada units:
$ gnatmake genauto
$ ./genauto <javaseq.in
$ gnatmake j2ada
The programs have been compiled and tested with GNAT GPL 2008 on Mac OS X 10.4. Translation example of essai.java in essai.adb and essai.ads:
$ ./j2ada

The residual first errors are inherent of object declarations mixed
with Java Code. A comment -- Help J2Ada : put it before begin has been
added to do the right modification.
The source code essai.ads uses Java libraries provided from
those of JGNAT (see also on Blady):
- Java-lang-string.ads
- Java-lang.ads
- java.ads
The display at each stage of the translation is activated by positioning at True the Debug constant in j2ada.adb.

- 1.4b : Add of importmgr.adb and importmgr.ads badly forgotten.
- 1.4a: Management of empty parenthesis when a call is made without parameters. Support of throws instruction and recursive reference in objects declaration. Modification of static initializers, statements try, import and for.
- 1.3a: Translation of Java control statements (assert, switch, for).
- 1.2a: Translation of Java class into Ada package and object type. Support of Java API.
- 1.1a: Translation of simple classes is added.
- 1.0a: First version for a demonstration of the translator.
