Abstract
This paper introduces a tool, named JML2B, destined to check the consistency of JML specifications. JML2B is a solution to the lack of tool-support for the JML models verification. Our tool translates JML specifications into the B abstract machines notation. The generated B machines can then be checked to ensure their correctness. When the proof fails, it is possible to retrieve the mistakes in the original JML specification.
