XML EDA
A place to collect my ideas revolving around HDL Parsing using XSLT 2.0.
[edit]
Why XSLT 2.0?
- Has regular expression support.
- Primary language parser itself can be transformed via XSLT into application-specific transforms.
- Primary language parser could be transformed into Lex/Yacc or JavaCC compile-able code.
- Easy to maintain
[edit]
Sample Code
- code/xmleda
- Example 1: Since multi-line comment parsing and escaped end-of-line characters can be one of the more challenging aspects of parser writing, that's what this example exercises. It uses the Saxonica parser; see the runExample1 script.
Note: If/when the XML EDA SourceForge Project goes active, I'll start uploading some more useful works in progress.
