<p>In order to access the API you first need to generate
one boilerplate Java class with the compiler:
<pre class="java">
$ gf -make -output-format=java App.pgf
</pre>
This class will expose all functions in the abstract syntax
as methods. Now creating new trees is just a matter of writing ordinary Java
code:
<pre class="java">
System.out.println(App.DetCN(quant, cn));
</pre>
If the grammar name is too long to write it in front of every function
name then you can create an instance with a shorter name:
<pre class="java">
App a = new App();
System.out.println(a.DetCN(quant, cn));
</pre>
