Hey folks, Our development team here is nearly complete with a DSL that we've designed and are hoping to ship the first open-source version in July or so. Right now, we parse down to the ANTLR Java target and are preparing for the version past this release, which I think needs to include some extension libraries for the language. For example, while our DSL can do all of the typical language things (e.g., if statements, looping), there are no APIs or libraries for doing file IO, connecting to hardware, network programming, or other such things.
Does this community have any experience adding in these sorts of features, as in, suggestions as for what kind of approach we should take? For example, we could allow something like a Java Native Interface, that would allow a developer to connect in utilities that allow things like File access. Or, we could allow custom native functions for low level things, like a file keyword, but that doesn't sound very flexible or extensible. Any general suggestions on an appropriate approach to take?
