Re: [Mono-list] My own language with mono?
How would have my code compile with mono? this is a general-purpose language, or something like a (typically smaller, simpler) domain-specific language (DSL)? I could output C# source (or C, or C++). I could also translate it to basic instructions like int a; a = 5; a+=6*2; into DECL INT a; A = 5; A += 6*2 (or REG = 6*2; A = A + REG;). What is the easiest way? this is why I asked if a DSL. Why would be you translating a general-purpose lang to yet-another-gen-purpose-lang? DSLs, many times, do that, though. And, the answer is almost always related to what it the target/purpose of the DSL? - Original Message - From: BlueHawk204 bluehawk...@hotmail.com To: mono-list@lists.ximian.com Sent: Friday, April 17, 2009 8:28 PM Subject: [Mono-list] My own language with mono?

Re: [Mono-list] Question on Code Generation
I'd like to hear about, you can email me directly if you don't mind. I'm working on Microsoft Oslo stuff for my own shop and asked via the Mono wiki if Mono work in-progress to support it. Due to Oslo currently being on a preview pre-release (CTP), Mono will wait. Understandable. But, I'd be interested in seeing to it Mono can support .Net 4.0 modeling the very day.Net 4.0 releases. - Original Message - From: anton123 niniendowarr...@gmail.com To: mono-list@lists.ximian.com Sent: Tuesday, April 07, 2009 6:08 PM Subject: Re: [Mono-list] Question on Code Generation I took a peek at T4 and it looks interesting. I'm still going through the tutorials on Mono development though so I'll take a deeper look on it once I get a better handle on Mono. I'll try everything I can to make Mono work for my project. I'm hell bent on it. That much can be said. :-) jhill wrote: CodeSmith 2.6 is almost 5 years old. Sadly, it probably isn't that far off from working with Mono, but it has some p/invokes, and after this long, it doesn't seem like they have any incentive to do any maintenance on the freeware tool. If you want to generate code from CodeSmith tempates on Mono, then it may be worth seeing if they have plans to support Mono with a newer version of their tool. On the other hand, I would love to see the T4 community grow. It seems like a lot more projects are starting to use it (particularly MS projects)... --Joseph Hi Michael! Thanks for the information. As a short exercise, I tried to run the freeware version of CodeSmith (2.6) on Mono and it didn't work. At least I tried. I was also thinking that CodeSmith should generate code that Mono can use as well. I'm writing on Linux mostly and I'm trying to really make this work since I don't want to own a Windows box for this. I'm scouring for everything that I can about this. Thank you for the link on T4. I'll be sure to read up on it.

I don't know whether CodeSmith runs on Mono, though it must be able to generate code that will run on Mono, so if you're writing code on Windows, then it might be a good choice.

Re: [Mono-list] Question on Code Generation
I see what CodeSmith actually generates, it may be relatively straightforward to produce a template generator I did an eval and tossed it. You can duplicate enough of what it does in very little time. cut down the clutter ??? You can clutter things with the templates you build, or not. - Original Message - From: anton123 niniendowarr...@gmail.com To: mono-list@lists.ximian.com Sent: Monday, April 06, 2009 7:24 PM Subject: Re: [Mono-list] Question on Code Generation Well, sounds like I'll have to roll up some sleeves and start hacking. :-) Actually, that's what one of the other teams is using (of which I have very little information other than the tools they use, e.g. Visual Studio and CodeSmith). Me and my co-workers are expecting that we may have to adopt that to dive right in and work with their code. As of now, the word is that CodeSmith will be able to cut down the clutter on many things. I presume if I see what CodeSmith actually generates, it may be relatively straightforward to produce a template generator. If anyone has ideas and opinions, I'll really appreciate it because it's still some time away from when I'll be doing some heavy .Net work and would be nice to be prepared. Thanks!

Re: [Mono-list] Microsoft Oslo
ah, yes. I have this, too. I'm curious if there's anyone talking about a Mono project to support Oslo. Oslo is CTP now, and the grammar et. al. is not hard to do in ANTLR et. al. Might be nice to follow along w/ Oslo's progression as it unfolds. I expect there will be massive pre-built frameworks, dynamic templates, etc. hitting the market before too long. Having Mono capability is a good thing. - Original Message - From: Atsushi Eno atsushi...@veritas-vos-liberabit.com To: Mono Trober monotro...@gmail.com Cc: mono-list@lists.ximian.com Sent: Friday, March 27, 2009 11:19 PM Subject: Re: [Mono-list] Microsoft Oslo I may write some code, but it is not related to mono work.
