GTK+ Object Builder (GOB) Very simple preprocessor for making GTK+ objects with inline C code so that generatedfiles are not editted. Syntax is inspired by java and yacc or lex. The implementation is intentionaly kept simple, and no C code parsing is done. Reasons: - C is a perfect (well mostly) language, no need for another language - Writing a fully featured GTK+ object is a hassle - Need for a generator that doesn't require changes to generated code - I like how Java writes method code directly into the class definition. To build: (the usual drill :) run "./configure;make" To install: run "make install" as root To use: run gob with the .gob file on the command line What's generated: two (.c and .h) files named by the object name with words separated by a hyphen (not neccessairly the .gob file prefix) How to write .gob files? 1) read "man gob" for some documenation on how to use GOB 2) if you can't find what you need, read src/test.gob and src/lexer.l and src/parse.y (in other words: RTFS) TODO: - clean up code - make it behave nice - add warnings all over the place - get a life George
