SyntaxTreePrinter (ch.usi.si.seart:java-tree-sitter 1.2.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- ch.usi.si.seart.treesitter.printer.SyntaxTreePrinter

All Implemented Interfaces:

TreePrinter
```
public class SyntaxTreePrinter
extends Object
```
Printer used for generating human-readable representations of trees using an iterative approach. Each node of the subtree is represented as follows:
```
      optional_field_name: node_name [start_column:start_row] - [end_column:end_row]
 
```
While indentation is used to represent the tree structure.

    Description copied from interface: TreePrinter
    
    Generates a file containing the string representation of an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). This method should be preferred over TreePrinter.print() when dealing with extremely wide, or deep trees.
    
    Returns:
    
    A file containing human-readable print-out of the tree
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - if an I/O error occurs
