“…DiaGen parses and analyzes a DiaSpec specification, and generates Java code. To do this processing, we use the tools JastAdd [13,16] and JastAddJ [12]. JastAdd is a meta-compiler providing advanced support for constructing modular and extensible compilers.…”

Abstract. The scope of telephony is significantly broadening, providing users with a variety of communication modes, including presence status, instant messaging and videoconferencing. Furthermore, telephony is being increasingly combined with a number of non-telephony, heterogeneous resources, consisting of software entities, such as Web services, and hardware entities, such as location-tracking devices. This heterogeneity, compounded with the intricacies of underlying technologies, make the programming of new telephony applications a daunting task. This paper proposes an approach to supporting the development of advanced telephony applications. To do so, we introduce a declarative language over Java to define the entities of a target telephony application area. This definition is passed to a generator to produce a Java programming framework, dedicated to the application area. The generated frameworks provide service discovery and high-level communication mechanisms. These mechanisms are automatically mapped into SIP, making our approach compatible with existing SIP infrastructures and entities. Our work is implemented and has been validated on various advanced telephony applications.

“…The problem of the modular design of languages has been explored by several authors (e.g., [32,33]). For example, JastAdd [33] combines traditional use of higher order attribute grammars with object-orientation and simple aspect-orientation (static introductions) to get a better modularity mechanism.…”

International audienceCurrent metamodeling techniques can be used to specify the syntax and semantics of domain specific modeling languages (DSMLs). However, there is currently very little support for explicitly specifying concurrency semantics using metamodels. Often, such semantics are provided through implicit concurrency models embedded in the underlying execution environment supported by the language workbench used to implement the DSMLs. The lack of an explicit concurrency model has several drawbacks: it not only prevents from developing a complete understanding of the behavioral semantics, it also prevents development of effective concurrency-aware analysis techniques, and effective techniques for producing semantic variants in the cases where the semantic base has variation points. This work reifies concurrency as a metamodeling facility, leveraging formalization work from the concurrency theory and models of computation (MoC) community. The essential contribution of this paper is a proposed language workbench for binding domain-specific concepts and models of computation through an explicit event structure at the metamodel level. We illustrate these novel metamodeling facilities for designing two variants of a concurrent and timed final state machine, and provide other experiments to validate the scope of our approach

“…Reference Attributed Grammars [10] are a generalization of door attribute grammars where the door objects are removed. In [26], an incremental evaluator for reference attributed grammars is shown which is used by the JastAdd [4] meta-compilation system. JastAdd also adds parametrized attributes which allow attributes to be parametrized, forming a mapping.…”

A Language Independent Task Engine for Incremental Name and Type Analysis

Abstract. IDEs depend on incremental name and type analysis for responsive feedback for large projects. In this paper, we present a languageindependent approach for incremental name and type analysis. Analysis consists of two phases. The first phase analyzes lexical scopes and binding instances and creates deferred analysis tasks. A task captures a single name resolution or type analysis step. Tasks might depend on other tasks and are evaluated in the second phase. Incrementality is supported on file and task level. When a file changes, only this file is recollected and only those tasks are reevaluated, which are affected by the changes in the collected data. The analysis does neither re-parse nor re-traverse unchanged files, even if they are affected by changes in other files. We implemented the approach as part of the Spoofax Language Workbench and evaluated it for the WebDSL web programming language.
