so you're really looking at source-to-source translation and I guess AST rewriting, cool > Unfortunately I don't have the C chops to be of much assistance with an > interpreter rewrite (I am a Java guy primarily, getting into Python), but -^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I'm already sit in that pit > I'd be glad to help with work on a common grammar, even though that is only > a small part of the problem, as you say. well, my requirements for a vehicle would be roughly like so: - industrial-strength error diagnosis and recovery, LALR(1) capable - can generate a C/C++ scanner/parser from grammer, lexical definition - the parser/scanner can be used from C/C++ or Python - optional parse tree generation a plus - mainstream/widely used code base a plus that probably suggests some bison or byacc base; I'd refrain from a Python-only solution like PLY because that's bound to diverge from the current interpreter since it cant be easily used a frontend; however, there was some discussion about moving the interpreter to fully-Python. I think thats overly ambitious given the resources though. I have zero Java clue and would try to avoid adding another language to the linuxcnc language plethora, which needs to be pruned rather than be added to I'd be interested what you think. - Michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
