John Interrante updated DAFFODIL-2202:
--------------------------------------
Description:
We have built an initial DFDL-to-C backend and code generator for Apache
Daffodil on a dedicated development branch. Currently the C code generator can
support binary boolean, integer, and real numbers, arrays of simple and complex
elements, choice groups using dispatch/branch keys, validation of "fixed"
attributes, and padding of explicit length complex elements with fill bytes. We
plan to continue building out the C code generator until it supports a minimal
subset of the DFDL 1.0 specification as described in Daffodil's Confluence here:
* [Runtime2
Design|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DAFFODIL/WIP:+Daffodil+Runtime+2]
We have some runtime2 todos (changes requested by reviewers) here:
* [Runtime2 ToDos|https://daffodil.apache.org/dev/design-notes/runtime2-todos/]
The DFDL-to-C backend and code generator must meet the following acceptance
criteria before we can submit a pull request to merge its development branch
into the main branch:
* [x] Works on "real" messages with sufficient complexity to demonstrate
functionality
* [x] Contains test schemas and TDML test cases covering all supported features
* [x] Fully integrates these tests into 'sbt test' part of Daffodil's build
process
* [ ] Has instructions how to setup required C tool-chain elements on Linux
and Windows
We plan to convert an ever-increasing subset of Daffodil's DFDL 1.0
specification TDML tests to run these tests on both the Scala and C backends
too.

We are keeping track of runtime2 todos (changes requested by reviewers) using
an AsciiDoc document in the dev/design-notes subtree of the Daffodil website
which you can read here:
* [Runtime2 ToDos|https://daffodil.apache.org/dev/design-notes/runtime2-todos/]
We will keep track of acceptance criteria here which the runtime2-2202
development branch must meet before we can submit a pull request to merge the
DFDL-to-C backend and code generator into the main branch:
* Works on "real" messages with sufficient complexity to demonstrate
functionality
* Contains test schemas and TDML test cases covering all supported features
* Fully integrates these tests into 'sbt test' part of Daffodil's build process
* Has instructions how to setup required C tool-chain elements on Linux and
Windows
I hope we will convert an ever-increasing subset of Daffodil's DFDL 1.0
specification TDML tests to run these tests on both the Scala and C backends as
the C backend matures during continued development too.
