Question

I am trying to visit method body with another treepathscanner, but I dont know, which parameter to pass, because I allways get a NPE in TreePath constructor.

@Override
public Object visitMethod(MethodTree node, Trees p) {
    ...
    node.getBody().accept(new MethodVisitor(m, repository), node.getBody());
    ...
}


public class MethodVisitor extends TreePathScanner<Object, BlockTree> {...}

Exception:

An annotation processor threw an uncaught exception.
Consult the following stack trace for details.

Thanks for any help.

In case that someone needs it, the correct way to call it is:

new MethodVisitor(m, repository).scan(p.getPath(compilationUnitTree, node), node.getBody());
