Syntax checking

Revision as of 09:23, 12 May 2006 by Jabernet (Talk | contribs) (→‎M3: May 9th)


Overview

The aim of this project is to provide adequate, but non intrusive feedback to user about syntax errors. This is done by checking syntax as you type and underlining syntax errors by the well knwon wavy red line. Furthermore, error descriptions and possible solutions should be provided.

The Project is named SynChé, which is a combination of syntax and checking. The é at the end is important, as a cool name needs either a recursive acronym or a special character from a non English language.

Milestones

M1: April 25th

  • Get home-grown EiffelStudio up and running.

M2: May 2nd

  • Put your name in this Wiki!
  • Analyse source code to certain degree, so discussion about interfaces between parser and visual is possible

M3: May 9th

  • SRS written
  • Overview of relevant classes (BON diagram or more)
  • Further Project Milestones specified, based on SRS and knowledge about code

Results of the Meeting: Visualisation

Team

Everyone intrested in this project is welcome to join our mailinglist es-ui@origo.ethz.ch. At this point, the team is divided into two groups at this point, one responsible for the parser, the other one for visual feedback (like underlininig).
