Create a new language

Language Luna

Luna is a lightweight, static typing, lua-like programming language. Luna provide a Flex and Bison based compiler and a stack based interpreter which called lunac and luna.

Compile and Install Luna

Platform

  • Linux
  • MacOS

Prerequierment

  • cmake (with c & c++ compiler support) (with c++11 feature)
  • flex
  • bison
  • git (to clone project, you can also download project from here)

Fetch Project Source Code

  • git clone ://github.com/lanzhige/SER502-Spring2018-Team4.git
  • cd SER502-Spring2017-Team10

Compile

  • ./build.sh, if the build process is failed, there will be an error message in the screen.

Run Tests

  • ./run,sh, to run all test files inside directory data.

Install

  • cd build && sudo make install && cd .., now you can use luna and lunac anywhere.

Tools We Used to Develop Language Luna

CMake is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test and package software. CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files, and generate native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice.
We use CMake to generate the makefiles.

Flex is a fast lexical analyser generator. It is a tool for generating programs that perform pattern-matching on text. Flex is a free (but non-GNU) implementation of the original Unix lex program.
We use bison to convert a sequence of characters into a sequence of tokens.

Bison is a general-purpose parser generator that converts an annotated context-free grammar into a deterministic LR or generalized LR (GLR) parser employing LALR(1) parser tables. Bison is upward compatible with Yacc: all properly-written Yacc grammars ought to work with Bison with no change.
We use bison to analyze a sequence of tokens to determine its grammatical structure.

valgrind is an instrumentation framework for building dynamic analysis tools. There are Valgrind tools that can automatically detect many memory management and threading bugs, and profile your programs in detail. You can also use Valgrind to build new tools.
(todo ..descirpt ..)

Doxygen, a tool for writing software reference documentation. The documentation is written within code, and is thus relatively easy to keep up to date. Doxygen can cross reference documentation and code, so that the reader of a document can easily refer to the actual code.
We use doxygen to comments our code and create a documentation.

Examples

Fibonacci (cat data/fibonacci.lu)

function int fibonacci(int n)
    if (n==1)
        return 1
    end
    if (n==2)
        return 1
    end
    return fibonacci(n-2) + fibonacci(n-1) //Recursion call
end

main()
    int res = fibonacci(3)
    print(res)
end

Byte-code will be generated: (lunac data/fibonacci.lu && cat data/fibonacci.luo)
