C# Language Parser

Author: metamaker

This is C# language parser. It performs lexical analysis, syntax analysis and intermediate code generation (in a form of intermediate parse tree and triads).

Lexical analysis: Tokens reading is implemented by use of regular expressions. Directive "#if" is implemented using grammar (which is quite slow so I will change such a way of things in future).

Syntax analysis: Application uses CYK algorithm to build parse tree. For more information see http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/~rogaway/classes/120/winter12/CYK.pdf.

How to build

You can use CMake (http://www.cmake.org/) to build this project. The steps are next:

1. Open command line and change current directory with $ cd command to the directory where you unpacked the project's source code.
2. Run $ cmake -H. -Bbuild -G "Visual Studio 12" to create Makefile for Visual Studio 2013 (or use other generator if you use other IDE). Don't forget to specify path to dependency libraries and headers with -D parameter.
3. Open build/C-Sharp-Parser.sln and build solution in Visual Studio.
4. Optionally, you can install this utility by building project which name is INSTALL in Visual Studio. Remember that you must have enough rights on your system to let VS copy files to installation folder.

Another option is to use bii (http://www.biicode.com). Building commands are next:

1. $ cd to the project's folder.
2. Run $ bii init -L.
3. Run $ bii find.
4. Run $ bii cpp:configure. You can specify your CMake generator with -G flag like $ bii cpp:configure -G "Visual Studio 12".
5. Run $ bii cpp:build to build the project.

Dependencies

Dependencies are automatically integrated into project when you use bii as build tool. If you prefer CMake you must compile dependencies and specify paths to them. The libraries are next:

• ExcelFormat: http://www.biicode.com/metamaker/ExcelFormat
• wxWidgets: https://www.biicode.com/fenix/wxwidgets
• cxxtest: https://www.biicode.com/DevOmem/cxxtest
