Overall it came from my extended C++ language -FOG that allowed meta-execution at compile time .., -It is very Open Source - no license at all. You may use it as you like. It would -be nice if you give an appropriate acknowledgement.. -The ISO compliance is the result of best endeavours comparison and interpretation -rather than rigourous application of conformance suites. -Be aware that it is a context free syntax only parser. It requires a subsequent semantic -phase to resolve certain ambiguities that require type context.. If you need to -implement this, you really should read the Grammar chapter of my thesis posted -on the same site, and maybe use the FOG semantic parsing as a starting point. -I hope you make lots and lots of money, so that you may feel generously disposed -to giving me some. -Regards -Ed Willink - - ------Original Message----- -From: Chris Koeritz -Sent: 14 January 2004 19:35 -To: 'Ed.Willink@rrl.co.uk' -Subject: question regarding your c++ grammar and lexer... -dear mr. willink, -first, thank you very much for posting your c++ grammar online. it is, well, awesome that it is compliant with the ansi standard. -i am wondering though about what copyrights apply to it. i am considering using the grammar in a project that might be included in a tool which might eventually be sold. -my concerns are: (1) is it appropriate to include your grammar in a GPLed open source application? and (2) do you allow the grammar to be used in a project that might be sold commercially without any royalty requirements for the use of it? -please feel free to push my nose into any FAQ sites or other information that may already be available. i came by your grammar from the site here: http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/compiler-dependencies.html#faq-37.11 -and they were a bit skimpy on links to anything besides the grammar itself. -thanks for your time and i hope releasing this grammar has been more fun than trouble for you... --chris koeritz -
