ANTLR is definitely the way to go. What's your target language? Java?

The PragProg book is, apparently, very good. If I was going to attempt anything beyond generating ASTs from simple DSLs then I'd invest in a copy.

Happy now?

Yeah, this'll eventually end up in an Eclipse plugin, so Java is simplest (though I'd also like to produce it as an independent binary so it can be easily scripted and integrated with non-Java editors also)

I'm a little wary of buying a book when I'm having such problems getting going - would be fine with something to fill in the gaps, but so far it seems I've got islands rather than lakes. :/

Just noticed the excerpts though, so I'll read them tomorrow and see what I think of it.


Current problem is trying to figure out either why the debugger is hanging, or even just how to turn it off.

Know anywhere that sells the book+pdf for a better price?

Amazon do the printed book for £17, but don't appear to do the digital version.

Annoyingly, I could have had them both for less than that, if I'd known pragprog.com had a 40% sale on - until Wednesday. :'(

PragProg do a discount on the ebook if you've bought the print one.

Happy now?

Yeah, it's the "enter the fourth word on page 213" type of thing.

Happy now?
