[Pharo-project] SmaCC
I'm using the Pharo 1.0 image and have loaded the configuration for SmaCC. It doesn't seem to come with any instruction or examples about how to use it, and I seem to have only the SmaCC-Runtime package group. I think I need SmaCCDev, but can't figure out how to load it. I opened up the monticello browser, but when I try to add a repository it asks me for an email address. I would appreciate help on any or all of figuring out how to use SmaCC, loading SmaCCDev (or any other packages) and info about package management in Pharo. Thanks. Ross Boylan

If you are looking for SmaCC execute the following Gofer scripts. Seriously, if you are looking at SmaCC you should have a look at PetitParser first <http://www.lukas-renggli.ch/blog/petitparser-1> :-) " Prerequisites " Gofer new squeaksource: 'rb'; package: 'AST-Core'; package: 'Refactoring-Core'; load. " SmaCC runtime and development tools " Gofer new squeaksource: 'SmaccDevelopment'; package: 'SmaCC'; package: 'SmaCCDev'; load. Lukas -- Lukas Renggli www.lukas-renggli.ch

Thanks for the pointer, and for making it. I'm going to try it (I'm building a SAS parser). BTW I loaded PetitGui, but when I do PPBrowser open there's a reference to the class GLMTabulator, which is not in my image. I had previously loaded moose, but it seems very tightly coupled to smalltalk, so I tossed it. Ross
Hi Ross,
Thanks for the pointer, and for making it. I'm going to try it (I'm building a SAS parser).
It would be very cool if your parser can be part of Moose (http://moosetechnology.org). By doing your metamodel as an extension of FAMIX, you will have tons of tools for navigation and visualization that comes for free.

Cheers, Alexandre I started reading about Moose (esp Meta-environment and executable meta-language using smalltalk) and it was all about languages with introspection. SAS has no such ability, and is not even object oriented. So it didn't seem like a good fit. Have I misunderstood--for example, are the remarks directed more at smalltalk as an implementation language for Moose?
In other ways some kind of preexisting framework would be helpful. I'm making the parser because I want to understand where a particular dataset, and then a particular variable in the dataset, came from. Ross

As soon as you provide a parser and a meta-model for your language, then moose is your friend. Independently if your language is object-oriented or not. I build an importer for C for Moose.

Hi, Moose is a platform for analysis of data in general and software systems in particular. It is not specific to Smalltalk or to any other language. It does come with prebuilt solutions for modeling and parsing various languages, but you can extend it with your own specific requirements. To form a generic idea, you can browse a bit this: http://themoosebook.org/ Regarding the reference to GLMTabulator, you need Glamour (which indeed also ships with Moose). If you want to load PetitParser with all required dependencies you do it via this script: Gofer new renggli: 'petit'; package: 'ConfigurationOfPetitParser'; load. (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfPetitParser) perform: #loadDefault. Cheers, Doru On 15 Jun 2010, at 00:46, Alexandre Bergel wrote:

Indeed, this was a mistake. It's fixed now. Cheers, Doru On 12 Dec 2010, at 03:42, Damien Pollet wrote:

http://www.lukas-renggli.ch/blog/petitparser-1 says The class side of PPPredicateParser provides a lot of other factory methods that can be used to build more complex terminal parsers. The class side is empty. Has the material perhaps moved to PPPredicateObjectParser, which has lots of stuff? Ross
You are right, I recently changed that but forgot to adapt the documentation. Lukas On 15 June 2010 00:33, Ross Boylan <ross@biostat.ucsf.edu> wrote:
