Java library or code to parse Newick format?

Question

Anyone knows a good Java library I can use to parse a Newick file easily? Or if you have some tested source code I could use?

I want to read the newick file: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newick_format in java and generate a visual representation of the same. I have seen some java programs that do that but not easy to find how the parsing works in code.

Answer 1

Check out jebl (Java Evolutionary Biology Library) of FigTree and BEAST fame. Probably a lot more tree functionality than you might need, but it's a solid library.

Answer 2

Stumbled on this question while looking for a Java Newick parser.

I've also come across libnewicktree, which appears to be an updated version of the Newick parser from Juxtaposer.
