Here is Leex in its current state.
There is no documentation (yet) but I have included erl_scan.xrl which is the Erlang token syntax.
The section headers "Definitions.", "Rules." and "Erlang Code." areliteral strings which must occur at the begiining of a line. Only the rules section is necessary.
You nclude macros in the pattern by writing {MacroName}. Macros can reference macros. Macros are expanded "as is" without any implicit adding of parentheses.
Within the body of a rule you can access the token characters, length and line number thorugh the predefined variables TokenChars, TokenLen and TokenLine.
You return {token,Token}, {end_token,Token}, skip_token or {error,ErrorString}.
The interface to the generated scanner is the standard io interface:
string/1-2
token/2-3
tokens/2-3
format_error/1 |

I naturally forgot to tell how to run it:
leex:file(Name)
which reads the file Name.xrl and generates the module Name in the file Name.erl. The file leex.hrl must be in the current directory.
No options yet. |

This is the first proper release of leex. Changes from the previous non-release version are:
- It now has a proper open-source license.
- An elusive bug has been found to have been a bug and has been fixed.
- A cool new option dfa_graph has been added. Thanks for Sebastian Egner for showing me the possiblities.
- There is now some documentation. Yeah!
Apart from this there are no other noticeable changes. The Erlang and LFE token syntaxes are included as examples. |

This is version 0.2 of Leex. New features and changes from the previous version are:
- The structure of the release is such that you can now drop straight into your ERL_LIBS directory.
- Added includefile option. Search for include file in current directory or leex/include lib dir.
- Restored text file version of documentation until I edoc and I are in agreement.
- Upgraded erlang_scan.xrl to full erlang tokeniser.
- Now use line number of token start.
- Fixed a bug where if the file ended in an incomplete token this was ignored and no error returned. |

This is version 0.3 of Leex. New features and changes from the previous version are:
- Added options to pushback characters into the input stream.
- Can now handle full unicode character sets in both input file and generated scanner. Of course i/o system can't generate such an input file yet.
- Enforce headings for all sections of .xrl file.
- Added verbose flag to control printing of parsing information.
- Fixed bug with completely empty erlang code section.
[Edit]: I just noticed that I failed to recompile the included leex.beam file. A "make compile" will fix this. |
