用XML实现编程语言间的互译
【打印文章】
编程语言间的隔阂虽然不如人类语言间的隔阂那么大,但确实是比较困挠程序员的一个问题。如果能通过某种方法实现象Delphi->c之类的转换,将是一件引人注目的事情,但这也许并不能使人们花大量的时间来实现这样的转换。我们来看,如果你是一个Delphi或C++Builder的高手,你一定做过这两者间的转换吧。每天都有大量的人做这类事的事情将带来多么大的浪费呀。而且,如果真的有可能实现的话,无疑会为开发智能编程机器积累技术和经验,给象国产的易语言这类生僻的编程语言更大的生机。为此,我作了一些思考。
首先,我们应当慢慢来。我假设所要面对的是普通的Windows GUI程序,为使用更多的先进技术(大部分的商业软件就是如此)。因为Windows编程几乎全部基于Windows API中的函数。所以,有比较好的共性。在选择转换技术上我选择了XML。因为它得到了广泛的支持,且有很强的扩展性。主题思想如下图:
V B
||
\ /
\/
XML(面向具体的编程语言,仅仅考虑完善的描述不考虑通用性。
||
\ /
\/
Delphi =====>> XML(同上)====>>>XPML(我瞎编的,一种通用性的程序描述格式,使用xml)…………
/\
/ \
||
||
XML(同上)
/\
/ \
||
||
C++Builder
这种花瓣形的互译模式,可以减少许多过程。转换时面对的都是统一的标准格式XPML。简明可操作。
然后要着手是使编程语言到描述其的XML语言的转换。我已经坐了一小步,定了一个描述delphi语言源文件的xml格式,描述了dpr,pas,dfm文件。如下:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="gb2312"?>
<delphi>
<project>
<program>Project1
</program>
<uses><name>Forms</name>
</uses>
<uses><name>Unit1</name><path>Unit1.pas</path><comment>Form1</comment>
</uses>
<res>
</res>
<Initialize>
<exp><Application><Initialize></Initialize></Application></exp>
<exp><Application><CreateForm><param>TForm1</param><param>Form1</param></CreateForm></Application></exp>
<exp><Application><Run></Run></Application></exp>
</Initialize>
</project>

最后综合各种语言的xml描述形式,定出XPML(Extensive Programming Markup Language)的标准。关键的互译开始了。
