What kind of Model is used for PHP language in PDT? [message #1796283]

Hi,

I am checking the feasability of deriving the PDT work for an editor for a legacy language.
What we have here is a macro basic language which embedds PHP code.

I wanted to go the xtext way but it looks like there is no antlr v4 grammar for PHP 7 available. So i am asking you what PDT uses internally - maybe we can use it.

thank you,
Axel

p.s.:
The macro language uses something along the line of

<#tagXY
	key1			=	"bla"
	key2			=	"blabla"
	#>
<h1>Funky</h1>
<?php
	// do php stuff here
?>
<#/tagXY#>

PDT use 2 models right now:
1. Basic model compatible with WTP that allow us embed PHP inside HTML files (WTP SSE)
2. DLTK model for language specific features, but there is a plan to switch into Handly in near future.

Our parser are written in JavaCUP / JFlex.

For you more interesting might be LSP4E - LanguageProtocol support and TM4E - textmate support
