Yes, there is much more work that needs to be done to generate C code for a bigger subset of DFDL types and schemas. I would say enough work has been done on my fork and now it's time to get more eyes, discussion, and collaboration on the runtime2 backend by building out the rest of the C code generator in public instead of my fork. However, I can't predict how much pushback I would get from Daffodil developers if their sbt build starts trying to compile C source files as well as Scala source files. I think it makes more sense to let multiple developers collaborate and experiment with the runtime2 backend on a new branch until we reach broad agreement on how the runtime2 backend should look and how it should affect the main Daffodil build. That's why I picked the name `wip-daffodil-2202-runtime2` for the new branch. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
