Simple lexical analysis java program

Question

My little project is a lexical analysis program in which i have to take every word found in an arbitrary .java file and list every line it appears on in the file. I need to have one look up table dedicated just to the reserved words and another for all additional words found in the document. So for a program like:

    public class xxxx {
    int xyz;
    xyz = 0;
}

The output should be:

Reserved words:
class: 1
int: 2
public: 1

Other words:
xxxx: 1
xyz: 2, 3

But there are a lot of problems with my current program and so i have no idea whats going on, so amendments to my program or a complete rewrite is welcome. I'm just trying to get a hang of the java language as a hobby so all help is welcome as long as i can understand whats going on. I'm sure there is a simple solution to this problem but my attempt didn't work :( Thanks for any help ^^

Answer 1

The simplest way of doing this is by using JFlex with correct lex file defining keywords. Once you have that, counting identifiers and keywords is trivial.

Answer 2

I found one bug that i think fixed everything. You need to state the directory of the file you are recovering in your main. For example what you have now is new LexicalAnalysis("lexitest.txt");

For my example I'm using my flashdrive so it would be new LexicalAnalysis("F"\\lexitest.txt");
