Hi;

I am working on a DSL on my Senior Project. In my senior proect, i m trying to define a language which can express protocols and it's source code are in a git repo(git://github.com/bhdrkn/Protocol-Definition-Language.git). I want to pass argument to allready defined function. To make it simple let say i want to define a grammer like that which is almost same in my senior project's grammer;

[DEFINITIONS]
Argument name
[/DEFINITIONS]
[FUNCTIONS]
function myFirstFunction(Argument arg0)
[/FUNCTIONS]
[CALLS]
call myFirstFunction(name)
[/CALLS]


In order to do that i define this;


FUNCFile:
defines = Defines
functions = Functions
calls = Calls;

Defines:
'[DEFINITIONS]'
definitions+=Define*
'[/DEFINITIONS]';

Define:
    name=ID param=ID;

Functions:
'[FUNCTIONS]'
functions+=Function*
'[/FUNCTIONS]' ;

Function:
'function' name=ID '(' (args+=Argument)* ')';

Argument:
    keyword=[Define] name=ID;

Calls:
'[CALLS]'
calls+=Call*
'[/CALLS]' ;

Call:
'call' name=[Function];



I'm stuck at calling a function and passing a argument to it. I try many other things but all of them failed. I read other messages about argument passing. But i still have no solution.

I need help

Call:
'call' name=[Function] '(' defres+=DefRef* ')';

DefRef:
def=[Define];

Please not: you reference Defines in your case not by "name" but by "param"

=> You have to change IQualifiedNameProvider to return the param of a Define as its qualifiedname
+ you will need a validator to check type and length of the DefRefs

Update:

are you sure you refernce defines by name and by param? if yes you do not have to change the IQualifiedNameProvider but the DefaultResourceDescriptionStrategy
to "export" Defines by "name" and by "param"

Thanks for your reply.
I tried something like that but it does not sufficient for me.
How to bind "function"'s Argument and "call"'s defres?
I want to bind "function"'s argument and "call"'s deferes.

Sorry. I now get it. I will look for both IQualifiedNameProvider and a Validator.
And thanks for your time.

Hi,

this is usually never !!! done in the grammar but always using a semantic validator. Wink
as i said in my first post: Quote:
