Is there BNF form for jalv2?

[yakshaver]

Hello all,

I recently wrote a major mode for editing JAL in Emacs.

https://github.com/hidsh/jal-mode

Currently, the following features are implemented.

- syntax highlighting
- compiling.jal
- On-the-fly syntax checking (flymake and flycheck)

As a new feature, I would like to implement an auto-indentation feature.
For that purpose, it would be helpful if there was a syntax definition for the BNF form implemented by the current jalv2 compiler, but I couldn't find it by googling.

Is there a syntax definition for the JAL language somewhere?

Also, it would be helpful to have the source of the jalv2 compiler.

Thanks.

Hi hideaki,

Yes there is a description of the JAL language. You can find it in the compiler directory of the JAL release.

I attached it to this e-mail.

Kind regards,

Rob

Great thanks Rob!

I have one question about the JAL manual you attached.

In chapter 7 (page 28) I saw an Example code "WHILE ... END WHILE". 

This syntax occurs an error in jalv25r7(jalv2-osx) I would use.

Do you plan to implement this syntax in a future version?

If so, I'm thinking that my auto-indent feature should also support this syntax.
I would be happy if this was just a typo.

Thanks

Hi hideaki,

Well found, that should be end loop. I will correct the documentation.

Thanks.

Kind regards,

Rob

Hi hideaki,

The documentation was corrected and is available in the last bee-package of Jallib.

Kind regards,

Rob
