EBNF for gosu

[Sławomir Śledź]

Hello,

Is there any compact document about EBNF for gosu language?

Hello,

Gosu is not a context-free language; therefore, there is no EBNF. Sorry about that, friend.

I'm currently working on the Gosu EBNF.
There are few things that are not context free in Gosu and I found
tricks to solve most the issues
I'm currently using ANTLR to validate the grammar by parsing, with the
generated parser, 50k+ real world Gosu files.
Once I'm pretty confident with the result I'll publish the grammar :)

Cheers

Hi Sławomir,
I completed my work on the EBNF grammar. Now I have a working ANTLR v3 grammar able to parse approximately 16K files in 16 seconds.

I was thinking to update the documentation and provide the EBNF grammar once we release a new version of the plugin as we
are still adding features to the language.
Do you have any particular need for the grammar on the short term?
Could you explain me what will be the intended use?


Thanks

Luca
