Re: [ql-users] SQL on QDOS

The original idea was to write the parser in archive but in view of the
feedback I think we had better think again.
Perhaps SuperBasic might be better.
Any thoughts?

SuperBASIC would be **much** better!

I once wrote a parser and syntax evaluator, in SuperBasic (and I think, 
converted it to C68) for a project many years ago - which died a horrible death.

The project was code named 'ARSE' and stood for ARchive Syntax Evaluator. It's 
main purpose was to take a file of Archive procedured, encrypted or not, and 
produce a SuperBasic file where the Archive stuff was converted to DBAS 
commands. I even got the screens converted to SuperBasic as well.

I managed to find a bug in one of the Quanta library discs where someone has 
written a huge set of procedures etc to make Archive easy, there was, if I 
remember, an end if out of sequence with an end while (See, it was that long 
ago, I can't even remember the syntax !) which Archive seemed to think was ok, 
but my parser/evaluator didn't like at all.

I *might* still have the source code, but it won't be pretty - but it wasn't 
bad for a first attempt at writing a 'compiler'. Actually, it remains my only 
attempt !

I know it had at least one bug in it, it didn't handle string expressions very 
well. If I'm not mistaken, stuff like DATE$(...) broke it.
