Terry, Rhodes University, 1996 http://www.scifac.ru.ac.za/compilers/ This site provides an on-line edition of the text and other material from my book "Compilers and Compiler Generators - an introduction with C++", published in 1997 by International Thomson Computer Press.

Be prepared for the release.

I have looked what was done on c-grammar. You made a good work. But there is still some critical problems on some little examples of the gcc test suite. 310 of the 844 tests fail. It is 35%. I think you put too much "0" in the "ok" attributes. The parser is now fixed up, so you can finish it. -- Valentin David valentin(a)lrde.epita.fr

Transformers 0.2
by Clement Vasseur 26 Jul '04

26 Jul '04

Transformers 0.2 is available. I hope the package is ok, since I got fed up of waiting for 6 hours each time I had to make a change. http://transformers.lrde.epita.fr I could not upload the file on gforge because there is a 2 MB limit on file size. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release, especially Olivier who did a very good work on the C grammar and disambiguation. off to the plane... bye! -- Clement Vasseur -o) [ nitro :: EPITA CSI 2005 ] /\\ "Programming is about being lazy." _\_V

Please learn to use Gforge before submitting file. "stlport.path" did not need to have a new version. -- Valentin David valentin(a)lrde.epita.fr

c-grammar/test/disambiguate
by valentin＠lrde.epita.fr 22 Jul '04

22 Jul '04

When there is an ambiguity, there is several possibility. I have looked into it, and i was surprised that only one possibility is tested for each ambiguity. It does not prove anything. Please add tests for all ambiguities. And keep it up to date! -- Valentin David valentin(a)lrde.epita.fr

I was talking about fixing the real problem, not providing a workaround. If the problem comes from StrategoXT itself, then it should be reported to them, but I want to be sure of that first. -- Clement Vasseur -o) [ nitro :: EPITA CSI 2005 ] /\\ "Programming is about being lazy." _\_V

StrategoXT 0.11 is available. From now on, we use this stable version instead of synchronizing on the SVN version. I installed the package here: /home/lrde/lrde/usr/StrategoXT -- Clement Vasseur -o) [ nitro :: EPITA CSI 2005 ] /\\ "Programming is about being lazy." _\_V

eh/cleanup1 removal
by Clement Vasseur 01 Jul '04

01 Jul '04

I propose the removal of the eh/cleanup1 test. This one depends on a patched version of SGLR, it is huge and takes a lot of time to run, and best of all it randomly fails. See bug #37 on gforge: "This test always fail, but never at the same place." It prevents the auto-build system to install cxx-grammar and test the packages that depends on it. Very annoying. Any objection? -- Clement Vasseur -o) [ nitro :: EPITA CSI 2005 ] /\\ "Programming is about being lazy." _\_V
