I’m doing some plugin developement in Eclipse – and I’m considering building in some refactoring tools for a domain-specific language that is part of the plugin process. However from looking at various tutorials and the like I’m starting to suspect that Eclipse only provides refactoring support for Java – can someone confirm this for me? I’d quite like not have rolled my own and then found that there was a handy API I’d not found…

The refactoring tasks are relying on the Java AST model that Eclipse makes available. You would first have to make your own AST builder. It’s a LOT of work for Java, which itself is a relatively simple language.
