Hi, due to the fact that this is my first message here : Why D is for me ! Comming from Modula2 and 3 (unfortunately both quit dead) D is absolutely what I need. Thanks Walter. Just an idea. Wh not choose ANTLR parser/lexer to translate Java into D. A 1.3 Java grammar is available. To give you an idea wehat I am talking about : http://www.codegeneration.net/tiki-read_article.php?articleId=77 The ANTLR Homepage : http://www.antlr.org/ The grammalist http://www.antlr.org/grammar/list ANTLR is written in Java.So porting this tool to D is at least possible I hope this will help to port Jface and Draw2D....

Comming from Germany, living in France, and actually working with an os in dutch. Aargh. Additional info: The complete Java 1.5 grammar is also available. A complete GNU C Translater seems to be available (could be used for .h to d translations) I will spend some time to browse through the documents. But it seems that ANTLR is an excellent tool to write a translater. ( a how to write an translater using ANTLR manual is also available)However, I am a D newbie so I guess I will run into trouble.. maybe someone more experienced will pick up the ball.

Although, I have to admit that I tried to grasp the idea behind the languagemachine during almost four evenings with little success. I managed to get a feeling for rule selection in the frontend phase. But when it comes to the connection between frontend/backend it took me down :- (. So I put it aside, maybe my next try will have more success.

I've written a lexer for Java that I gave to Kris as the foundation for a j2d tool. It doesn't parse, it just lexes. I'll be happy to supply it to anyone else who wants to work on a j2d tool. For anyone curious about how compilers work, building a j2d tool would be a great way to learn, while at the same time producing a tool that could be very valuable.
