Taste

Coco/R Taste example attributed grammar for use by my Swift-based Coco tool.

My version of the Taste compiler uses a Swift-like syntax and the attributed grammar file works with my Swift Coco tool.

The compiler tool produces machine code for a virtual machine that also runs in an included virtual simulator. Both tools were converted from the C# version available from the Coco/R repository at http://www.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/Coco/

The included attributed grammar file taste.atg and the framework files are included.
New source files for the Taste compiler can be produced using these files and the Swift-based Coco tool.

The following example compiles and runs successfully using the Taste compiler/simulator:

// This is a test program which can be compiled by the Taste-compiler.
// It reads a sequence of numbers and computes the sum of all integers 
// up to these numbers.

program Test {
  var i: Int

  func Foo() {
    var a: Int; var b: Int; var max: Int
    read(a); read(b)
    if a > b { max = a } else { max = b }
    print(max)
  }

  func SumUp() {
    var sum: Int
    sum = 0
    while i > 0 { sum = sum + i; i = i - 1 }
    print(sum)
  }

  func Main() {
    read(i)
    while i > 0 {
      SumUp()
      read(i)
    }
  }
}

And here's the generated machine code output:
