---+ Transformers 0.4 C/C++ Transformation Framework -- released December 24th, 2005 ---+++ Download See the [[http://www.lrde.epita.fr/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Transformers/CTransformersManua… instructions]] if you are not familiar with the standard installation procedure, and to see how to install Transformers dependencies. * http://www.lrde.epita.fr/dload/transformers/transformers-0.4.tar.bz2 ---+++ Documentation To learn how to basically use Transformers, you can refer to the [[http://transformers.lrde.epita.fr/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Transformers/CTransfor… manual]]. Since Transformers is mainly a research project, most of the documentation can be found in [[http://www.lrde.epita.fr/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Transformers/TransformersPublic… paper and technical reports]]. Unfortunately, most of them are not up to date. ---+++ License This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

The previous disambiguation method (with filters) was wiped out. We have reached almost the same state with AG as we had with disambiguation filters, although template disambiguation is a bit worse. * Improve whole parsing performance. The AG evaluator previously worked dynamically using Stratego dynamic rules. It is now compiled into a binary, making the disambiguation process 20 times faster. * Use pkg-config for all packages configuration. In this release we have introduced pkg-config for locating packages and their configuration. There is no need of --with-* options anymore. ---+++ Download and Installation The release page contains the source distributions, and detailed instructions on how to install the distributions: * http://www.lrde.epita.fr/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Transformers/TransformersReleas… Note that this release still depends on StrategoXT/0.14. Another release will come soon with StrategoXT/0.16 support. ---+++ Bugs and Known Problems See our issue tracking system for reports about (open) bugs: * [[https://gforge.lrde.epita.fr/]] Please report any problems with installation or bugs in the implementation to our issue tracking system.
