Update

Tue, 31 Jan 2012 05:21:23 GMT

Before we acquire any more UNICORN PORN, I would just like to bring you up to speed on the happenings, which have been few and far between.

This is the tentative parser plan:

The groupings are not completely accurate as there are "logical groupings" not represented in code, but instead in dependencies. I'll draw those in after I've worked out exactly what those dependencies are.

As for the git migration status, we've had a whopping success. The IRC bot is now capable of probing any of the subprojects composing LGM and ENIGMA, which are all on Github. No changes have yet been made to the installer as installation will now be more directed. We will, before the first git release, refactor ENIGMA to not require write access to its own directory, which will enable us to install to the program files, or to /opt/ or /bin/ on Linux.

More to come, but for now, I'm tired.

New GitHub Repository

Fri, 06 Jan 2012 22:45:49 GMT

I've just set up a repository on GitHub for ENIGMA. You can find it here: https://github.com/enigma-dev/enigma-dev

If you're running a Linux-based distro, you can install the git package, then run the following command to create a local copy:

Code: [Select]

git clone git://github.com/enigma-dev/enigma-dev.git(note: git checkout is not like svn checkout; git clone is svn checkout)

For those of you that want something like TortoiseSVN, TortoiseGit is also available. If you don't know how Git works, I'd suggest learning it (it's not the same as SVN) or asking someone how to use it.

From GitHub, you can fork the repository (and then push changes in your fork back to us), submit bugs (either there or on flyspray here), and watch for changes. You can also view a list of files and commits with much more ease. If you want to download a copy of the repo at any time, GitHub also supports this: https://github.com/enigma-dev/enigma-dev/downloads

One of the largest differences between Git and SVN is Git's naming of commits; instead of using incremented numbers, it uses hashes. Commits can be named using tags (git tag <name> <commit>), and you can switch to a specific tag or branch with (git checkout <tag/branch>). Git also makes a single .git directory in the root instead of SVN's recursive .svn nonsense.

Note that the SVN repo is still up, but I'm not entirely sure of how things are going to work with either. This is a very large change, however, is really for the better.

Neat Stuff

I was working on this new parser yesterday, and I thought it'd be kind of neat to make my AST generator export SVGs. So I did.

So, given this expression: 2 << 1 + 6 / 2 - 2 / 2 << 8 % 5 + 5 / 2

The AST looks like this, step by step:

ast << create_token_dec_literal("2",1);

ast << create_token_operator("<<",2);

ast << create_token_dec_literal("1",1);

ast << create_token_operator("+",1);

ast << create_token_dec_literal("6",1);

ast << create_token_operator("/",1);

ast << create_token_dec_literal("2",1);

ast << create_token_operator("-",1);

ast << create_token_dec_literal("2",1);

ast << create_token_operator("/",1);

ast << create_token_dec_literal("2",1);

ast << create_token_operator("<<",2);

ast << create_token_dec_literal("8",1);

Happy New Year!

I'm tired as ass. And sick as a dog.

Really, though. I hope that 2012 is a great year for everyone. Except Yoyo, I mean. Obviously.

Merry Christmas!

Just posting to wish everyone a merry Christmas and whatnot.

I've not seen Ism in a few days, but polygone and HaRRi are working on this and that, and I've committed the first revision of my new C parser. Forgoing future holiday distractions, I should be done with it in the very near future; possibly before this year is over.

Not sure about you people, but I have things to celebrate and family to visit.

Cheers, of the Christmas variety.
