New parser model for Code completion

<< < (12/16) > >>

takeshimiya:
No, that's why I said to cooperate with the CodeStore author, which is doing exactly that: integrating ANTLR with a CodeCompletion plugin.

anonuser:
Alright I'll look into it.

grv575:
cool, there is a standalone exe: antlr exe (http://www.antlr.org/download.html)
"antlr-2.7.5.exe (Win32 executable made with mingw)"

which works without java installed and is the latest version.  Not sure if this is better or not vs. using the c++ antlr port (which is like 2.7.4 apparently).

anonuser:
I believe the idea is to have antlr generate the language parser for you and you just use that code.
You provide language grammer it spits out a parser.

grv575:
yeah but we can just provide a link to antlr.exe and say use this to generate a parser for language X if you want X to be used as a code completion plugin.  makes modular expansion of the parsing framework that much easier.
