We should probably learn not to pop up information all the time. So I would remove it and wrtie the Transcript.

Levente, I follow on why my shell script did not work. Your instructions got me going, but we still don't have an answer. The vm is running, but I cannot attach: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/vm-dev/2008-March/001840.html >From what I read, one answer is the get the image loaded and then attach - my problem is that the vm never gets far enough to actually load the image. Any ideas? Bill

Re: [Pharo-project] Initial PetitC parser

by Alexandre Bergel

> Can't macros and preprocessor directives be represented as just another nodes in the AST? In some cases yes, in some other no. The preprocessor allows you to completely change the syntax of C. This makes it very hard to parse. Consider the following valid C program: #define LEFTPARENT ( #define RIGHTPARENT ) int main LEFTPARENT void RIGHTPARENT { return 0; } Cheers, Alexandre > > > On 7 Apr 2011, at 23:53, Javier PimÃ¡s wrote: > > > by the way, the grammar is based on > > > > http://www.quut.com/c/ANSI-C-grammar-l-1998.html > > > > and > > > > http://www.quut.com/c/ANSI-C-grammar-y.html > > > > I'd be very grateful if you contribute to cover the full extent of it! > > > > > > On Fri, Apr 8, 2011 at 12:37 AM, Javier PimÃ¡s <elpochodelagente(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > I took some time to start developing a C parser with PetitParser.
