Internal scala compilation. Working with interactive.Global
- by scout
I am trying to retrieve the AST from scala souce file. I have simplified the code (only relevant code) to following.
trait GetAST {
val settings = new Settings
val global = new Global(settings, new ConsoleReporter(settings))
def getSt = "hello" //global.typedTree(src, true)
}
object Tre extends GetAST {
def main(args:Array[String])
{
println(getSt.getClass)
println("exiting program")
}
}
The above code compiles fine and runs fine. But the problem is the program does not exit. The prompt is not displayed after printing "exiting program". I have to use ^c to exit.
Any idea what the problem might be
