digitalmars.D - Compiler construction tools?
- Joey Peters (27/27) Jun 28 2006 Are the following available yet:

- Rémy Mouëza (18/45) Jun 29 2006 For GUI you may have a look at the Wiki4D :

Are the following available yet: Lexer generator, Parser generator, Graphics library; preferable all simple and dandy, working 100%, and fast. Perhaps even developed along the lines of compatibility with each other (lexer and parser). -- bg info -- I was going to use this to try and make a virtual aether. Science is trying to prove this new aether but Einstein said it was "stupid" in his special theory of relativity. However, it is a special theory. In this virtual ether, I wanted to make scripts that define the properties of singularities operating in a time space configured by mathematical formulas. If visualized, this throws graphically stunning effects such as different types of fractals... I am not smart enough to make these tools myself. I barely have an idea how to start this project or how the procedures must look like. I was thinking along the lines of logic shapes and defining how they are "mutilated" in a custom language. It is for my artistic side, to make some dandy looking fractals that nobody has seen before (in such a pattern etc). JavaScript or existing tools worth embedding, are all too slow. I wanted a compile time fractal generator to improve in rendering considerably. Rendering fractals or virtual singularities on such planes requires a lot of processing power even for something as simple as a mandelbrot. The difficult part, is interpreting the code, and dynamically allocating programming in memory and setting the PC there. This will require some assembly... I may just wait another 6 years with this though due to some mental conditions I've been having.

For graphics, there are a few libraries available, but I'll plug my own (since it's the only one I know anything about :P): http://www.dsource.org/projects/bindings/browser/trunk/cairo/ Granted, cairo isn't the fastest, but it has good quality, and is easy to use. I actually thought about writing a simple 2D fractal program using cairo, but never got around to it :P As for what you want to use it for... sounds fun but very tricky. Best of luck :) -- Daniel

I may just wait another 6 years with this though due to some mental conditions I've been having.For GUI you may have a look at the Wiki4D : http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?AvailableGuiLibraries Yesterday, I made a search about available GUI libraries, written in C and based on SDL and OpenGL with the idea to make some bindings using Gregor Richards' BCD available on dsource : http://www.dsource.org/projects/bcd BCD contains itself some bindings to GUI libraries: FLTK and Gtk-2. I was interested by the following libraries : Agar : http://agar.csoft.org/index.html.en and OTK : http://otk.sourceforge.net/ Both open source and highly portable. You may also consider using Arc : http://www.dsource.org/projects/arcgames wich includes a GUI library : http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1629&sid=9a079febf1c97488003ed068c20cdc43 However, that latter might not be as complete as Agar and OTK but is in the same spirit.
