Hey,
I've been looking for a D2 parser.. there seems to be a few D1 lexers,
parsers, and even some minimal semantic analysis tools but I can't find
much of anything for D2. Perhaps Goldie will be D2 compatible some day
soon. :)
There's a "CodeAnalyzer" lexer/parser with some minimal semantics, but
it's D1 only and kind of dead for some years. The Poseidon author added
some D2 support for it in his editor, so I have kept an eye on that. But
interfacing with D1 code from D2 is kind of complicated, and I need to
use it from D2. (I guess I could get away with writing a DLL with a
simple interface for D2 or something..).
I had a visit on the prowiki site and most of the parser projects there
are either D1-only or dead. So is there anything usable for D2?
Specifically I need these tools for use with an editor/IDE, which is
something I'm working on for fun atm. But working on a parser is
probably a ton of work, + the whole thing screams NIH to me. Luckily
enough I don't have to reinvent a GUI and an editing control, there's
DFL and Scintilla which are pretty awesome for my needs.
Maybe I should take a look at how Descent/DDT and VisualD do their
parsing.. :)
You can try using ddmd (dsource.org/projects/ddmd).
