How to resolve this error?

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

Hi! You have to install and put in the path tree sitter parser.

Cheers

nimisha-agarwal commented 8 months ago

Do I need to install the java-tree-sitter parser? Can you share the link that contains instructions for installing it?

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

It's all on the tree sitter parser repo, located in the same organization.

nimisha-agarwal commented 8 months ago

Thank you so much. I got it.

After installing the tree sitter and adding it to the system path, I got this new error. Can you help me in resolving it?

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

Apparently, there is a syntax error in your file.

nimisha-agarwal commented 8 months ago

Do you mean the error is in the GumTree code, as its binary is extracted from the zip file generated after the build?

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

Could you attach the files you are trying to diff? The syntax error should be in one of those

nimisha-agarwal commented 8 months ago

I am using the same file for both arguments. Here are the contents: solution.txt

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

Could you provide me the command? It works for me

nimisha-agarwal commented 8 months ago

./gumtree textdiff ~/solution.c ~/solution.c

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

OK it's definitively working on my side, although the result is not very interesting ;-)

Something is not right with your install. Could you try tree-sitter-parser.py solution.c c ? You should obtain the XML of the AST.

I am getting the following error on running this command: Screenshot from 2023-11-20 18-28-57

I have taken code from the main branch. This file is unavailable in my local repository. Where can I find it?

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

OK it seems that you did not checkout the submodules in the project tree-sitter-parser right ?

nimisha-agarwal commented 8 months ago

I have checked them out, and GumTree is also working now. Thanks for all the help :)

One more query: How can I install GumTree on Ubuntu 18.04 as the dependent packages are not available for this version?

jrfaller commented 8 months ago

if you don't need the dependent packages, you can install GumTree without them, it will work, if not you need to find how to compile manually the required native packages.
