| | 1 | FeatureList xText EBNF new version: |
| | 2 | |
| | 3 | -Core Features: |
| | 4 | -BNF front-end (Parser, Lexer, Linker, etc.) - translates a textual representation into an Ecore model |
| | 5 | -the editor |
| | 6 | - Editor - provides IDE features, e.g. auto-completion, syntax highlighting, etc. |
| | 7 | |
| | 8 | -Validation Rules: these rules will give warnings in the editor if they find find consistencies in the code |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | -checkUpdateGrammarConsistency: checks, if the grammar is an updated grammar, for consistencies between the originals and the new grammar |
| | 11 | e.g.: |
| | 12 | status: not migrated |
| | 13 | |
| | 14 | -CheckReferencedOnlyOnce: this should warn if there is a rule that is only referenced once, this is an inlining hint |
| | 15 | e.g.: |
| | 16 | status: migrated |
| | 17 | |
| | 18 | -checkPassthroughRule: |
| | 19 | e.g.:this tests if a rule gets just passed through |
| | 20 | a ::= b |
| | 21 | b ::= "literal" |
| | 22 | <=> a ::= "literal" , which is better for EBNF |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | -checkEqualAlternative: this tests if a rule got equal alternatives |
| | 25 | e.g.: |
| | 26 | a::= d | d |
| | 27 | status: still some problems |
| | 28 | |
| | 29 | -checkDuplicateRules: checks if there is another rule in the EtsiBnf, that got the same behaviour |
| | 30 | e.g.: |
| | 31 | a ::= "literal" | b |
| | 32 | c ::= "literal" | b |
| | 33 | status: migrated |
| | 34 | |
| | 35 | -checkSubruleDuplicates: |
| | 36 | |
| | 37 | status: not migrated |
| | 38 | |
| | 39 | -check unused rule: it checks if a rule is used (exept for the rule with the number 1) |
| | 40 | |
| | 41 | status: migrated |
| | 42 | |
| | 43 | -checkNameIsUnique: checks if the nam of a rule is already in use |
| | 44 | e.g.: |
| | 45 | a ::= "end" |
| | 46 | a ::= "fin" |
| | 47 | |
| | 48 | status: migrated |
| | 49 | |
| | 50 | -Generation: |
| | 51 | -basic generation has been achieved but the output-format is unclear. Works with a Xtend-generator, momentary "xmi-like" output for a bnf grammar |
| | 52 | -old version had: mwe2 Generator and Xpand2 support |
| | 53 | - it could generate mergeGrammars from CoreGrammars and CompositeGrammars from Merge grammars |
| | 54 | -seemingly it could produce a xsl-fo-file with the corresponding nodemodel |
| | 55 | |
| | 56 | -new version: xsl-fo file for all bnf grammars (not for merge or deltagrammars) this can be Rendered to Pdf using apache-fop |
| | 57 | |
| | 58 | -Formatting: |
| | 59 | -old: had some but they are got commented out in the main project |
| | 60 | |
| | 61 | -new: Line-break after every rule, white-spaces after all literals, linebreak and double tab after all >|< bars |
| | 62 | -still got some Problems with rulereferences at the end of a definitionlist |
| | 63 | |
| | 64 | -Refactoring & Quickfixing: |
| | 65 | old had: |
| | 66 | -auto Numbering of rules |
| | 67 | -not migrated |
| | 68 | -remove unused rules |
| | 69 | -not migrated |
| | 70 | |
| | 71 | -replacement of passthroughRules |
| | 72 | -not migrated |
| | 73 | -refactor uppercasetokenRules |
| | 74 | -not migrated |
| | 75 | |
| | 76 | -find references, this one is standard in xtext2.* |
| | 77 | -renaming, this is standard in xtext2.* |
| | 78 | |
| | 79 | -Grammar composition: |
| | 80 | -3 grammartypes: |
| | 81 | grammar: normal grammar |
| | 82 | deltagrammar: different notation for a extension grammar, |
| | 83 | adds new rules to a grammar (regular rules)and |
| | 84 | adds changes to rules of the extended grammar(extension rules) |
| | 85 | -can be automaticly created |
| | 86 | mergegrammar: for merging extensions |
| | 87 | -old version had an automatic composition Process, for merge grammars, with a small pop-up-menu. |
| | 88 | |
| | 89 | - at the moment no support in the new version |
| | 90 | |
| | 91 | |
| | 92 | -Deploying: |
| | 93 | -export project: Plug-in Development/deployable plug-ins and fragments |
| | 94 | -rcp project with a minimal eclipse editor |
