Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2003-07-11 Severity: wishlist * Package name : cdl3 Version : 1.2.3 Upstream Author : C.H.A. Koster, Paul Jones * URL : http://www.cs.kun.nl/cdl3/ * License : GPL Description : 'compiler description language' based on affix grammars
CDL3 (Compiler Description Language) is a language based on affix grammars. It is intended for development for compilers. It has an easy to use, yet powerful way to traverse complex datastructures. . The language looks like PROLOG, but is deterministic and strongly typed. For these reasons, efficiency and static checking are much better than in PROLOG. CDL3 is available as a compiler generator on numerous platforms, producing either very efficient assembly code or (less efficient but portable) C code. . It was developed at the University of Nijmegen, the Netherlands. I already have a beta version of this package. CDL3 is a build dependency for my next ITP, AGFL.
