HI Thanks for your input, it is not too harsh, I prefer straight comments than something I have to read several times to understand.
I will not disturb your session, but I have put some reasons/answers below. rgds Jan I.

I will change the extensions, no problem...I use hungarian notation for variables, and I know that some system require e.g. int variable to start with a lower case "i", something I am not to much friend of, because it gets very cluttered when you make your own classes. > > > >> Of course, I would very much like to hear if there are non-efficient / >> malicious code in there, but please remember this is only the control >> skeleton, so there are a lot of code missing. >> > I only found one thing: > > genConvert.cpp convert_gen::getConverter > > - There are two if statements at the start of the method.

No, there will be no external tools...all will be embedded in genLang, I am right now embedding transex3 (which is a lex grammar), each conversion is done as its own class, making it easy to expand. Localize_sl, spawns today different processes, written in C++, Lex, bash, python and bash....that is not maintainable, making it with classes as one program in C++ makes it easier to maintain. I have done some speed test (based on some input I got on localize_sl). On windows localize_sl takes about 2 minutes to complete "sw" directory, mainly due to spawning a new process for each file. My preliminary test makes me believe that genLang will do the same in less than 10 seconds. > > > >> I try to include a zip file with this mail, should I not succeed, then >> please respond to the mail and I will sent it directly. >> > > If the above sounds too harsh, then that is because I am currently sitting > in the BoF seesion and am trying to concentrate on two things at the same > time. > THANKS for taking time, have a nice session. I have on the other hand been searching for unit test tools, it seems we are not really using that....my biggest fear is to build something (of course with high reuse of source) without being able to guarantee that the output is identical to the old process. > > -Andre > > > >> MANY Thanks in advance for the help. >> Jan. >> >> >
