Hi John,
thanks for taking the initiative here and sorry for beeing a bit silent in the
last weeks / monthts.
Especially I hope that all of you are well!
I can offer to do a little Zoom / Teams / Google Hangout Webmeeting later today
or tomorrow (or also next week) to discuss the topic a bit and get started
together.
What do you think?

I'd like to work on the code generation framework
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2202) initiated by Julian
Feinauer and discussed by Mike Beckerle in the Daffodil design notes
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DAFFODIL/WIP%3A+Daffodil+Runtime+2).
Steve suggested that I start a discussion on the dev mailing list.
Mike said that our first goal should be to get a very simple code-gen
example working. Write a schema that describes a single element (a 32-bit
binary int), get Daffodil to compile that schema, generate the source code for
a parser, compile that parser, and run a test against it showing it is working
as expected:
<xs:element name="uI_01" type="xs:unsignedInt" />
<tdml:parserTestCase name="unsignedInt_binary"
root="uI_01" model="SimpleTypes-binary"
description="Section 5 Schema types-unsignedInt - DFDL-5-018R">
<tdml:document>
<tdml:documentPart
type="bits">00000000000000000000000000001000</tdml:documentPart>
</tdml:document>
<tdml:infoset>
<tdml:dfdlInfoset>
<uI_01>8</uI_01>
</tdml:dfdlInfoset>
</tdml:infoset>
</tdml:parserTestCase>
@Test def test_unsignedInt_binary() {
runner.runOneTest("unsignedInt_binary") }
Julian has contributed some code
(https://github.com/apache/incubator-daffodil/compare/master...JulianFeinauer:feature/daffodil-2202-initial-codegen)
and Mike has made some changes to it
(https://github.com/apache/incubator-daffodil/compare/master...mbeckerle:daffodil-2202-initial-codegen).
We will have to solve a lot of problems before we can run even that test,
so it would be a big step forward. I want all the help I can get to get this
tiny first example working. I would welcome a suggestion from Julian, Mike,
Steve, or anyone else how to continue what's been done so far.
Thanks,
John
