Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Any word on the Java Compressor

Maybe the logic can be common, but the actual parsing will still be the bulk of the work.. and not common ----- Original Message ----- From: Jesse Vitrone To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 30, 2003 8:54 AM Subject: Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Any word on the Java Compressor Yeah, the only way that I can see this working well is to come up with some algorithm to figure out code structure, and where it's safe to add in a semi-colon. I'd love to start working on something like that, but I just don't have the time right now :( I also agree that it's useful to have a JS and Java versions of a compress / merge type tool, it just seems like a waste with all the duplicate logic.   Maybe there's some way to extract out the logic to XML or something, that way the 2 versions could share.

Either way, if it's a Java or _javascript_, it'll be nice to have a GUI version someday, but probably Jesse is right in focussing attention to fixing the missing smi-colon issue. IIRC, in some cases where the compressor would like a semi-colon, there may simply be one missing, or there may intentionally be one missing, because sometimes the _javascript_ breaks with those semi-colons in place. In each case the compressor has to do it's thing but figure out which case is which before adding semi-colons.

If you have ideas and just give me some pseudo, I can whip something up in Java and add it in. Jesse Raymond Irving wrote: Ok I'll try to implement such a featrure into to JScript version (beacause I'm not that verse at Java) and then you can implement it into the Java version. Once we have a gui interface I think we can then do away with the JScript version. __ Raymond Irving Jesse Vitrone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Raymond, Unfortunately, no. I've been using it all the time, but just from the command line. I'd love to be able to put more time in it, but I've been busy with other stuff :( If there was time to work on it, I think it might be better spent trying to add logic to determine where missing semi-colons are and where it's safe to add them in.
