StaticLang

Generates a language package from a GOLD CGT file that can be embedded directly into a D program and used in either static-style or dynamic-style.

Example:

Suppose this scenario:

Your program is called MyApp and is in a package named myapp.
MyApp's sources are in ./src.
You have a language mylang with a CGT ./langs/mylang.cgt (created by GOLD Parsr Builder).
You want to use mylang in static-style (or want to use it dynamic-style but have it built directly into MyApp instead of loading the CGT at runtime).

>staticlang langs/mylang.cgt -dir:src -pack:myapp.mylang

The above command will create the package myapp.mylang in directory ./src/myapp/mylang/. Then, to use the language (in either static-style or dynamic-style), include this line in the MyApp source:

import myapp.mylang.all;

Then, use the Language_{languageName} named language_mylang, like this:

module myapp; import myapp.mylang.all; void main() { auto source = "...source code in 'mylang' language here..."; // Static-style: auto rootTokenStatic = language_mylang.parseCode(src).parseTree; // Dynamic-style: auto rootTokenDynamic = language_mylang.parseCodeX(src).parseTreeX; // rootTokenStatic is of type: Token_mylang!("<mylang's start symbol>") // (Look up 'Token_{languageName}!({symbol})' in Goldie's API Reference) // rootTokenDynamic is of type: Token }

For an example of actually using the resulting parse tree, see the source code for the Included Sample Apps and the examples on the Static And Dynamic Styles page.

Sample Usage: staticlang langs/lang.cgt Creates "goldie/staticlang/lang/*.d", each containing "module goldie.staticlang.lang.*;" staticlang langs/lang.cgt /dir:foo/src /pack:myapp.mylang Creates "foo/src/myapp/mylang/*.d", each containing "module myapp.mylang.*;" Switches: (Prefixes can be '/', '-' or '--') ('[]' means multiple switches are accepted) /help Displays a help summary and exits /detail Displays a detailed help message and exits <text> (Required) CGT language file to use /pack:<text> Name of output package (default: goldie.staticlang.{cgt}) /dir:<text> Directory of package root (default: current directory)
