Hi thierry
mark will arriv at Lille saturday for a month. He is working with
Camille on a new tree pattern matching algorithm
A generic algorithm or one tied to the RB AST?
A generic algo.
We will talk with Camille monday
because we lost energy on RB matcher.
What was your analysis?
JC did his Phd on code transformation and with anne they try to really
document
how the unification works in RB and ... after tears and pain they gave up.
So we really want to see if we cannot do something better.
Thanks,
Thierry

You mean RewriteRules? I was planning to do that, for this exact
reason.
But you know how things go when there is a long list of priorities.
I know it saves a lot of time and makes porting so much more safe, but
it needs an up-front investment in time...
Yes, rewrite rules. Mark Rizun GUI attempts are a very interesting
direction to handle that...
Oh, by the way, Mark, if you're listening... I did what you were
trying to do by changing AST nodes positions in Pharo, but on a SmaCC
based AST for another language. I have to admit that you were right to
try to do it that way, but that the Pharo/RB AST infrastructure wasn't
suitable whereas SmaCC infrastructure is.
