  • How Should Compilers Explain Problems to Developers? (Pdf, 2018)

    Having good error messages is one of the important priorities for me in my compiler, so I made the commitment early and am using codespan[0] to report the errors, which is going well so far.

    There's https://github.com/brendanzab/codespan as well, and a number linked from their pages.

    Working in a GENERAL relational language (ie: not just a query one, like SQL, but general to make full apps, like python/delphi/c# + linq):

    that is my attempt to resurrect the spirit of the FoxPro/dbase kind of tools.

    Is on Rust, and is also my way to sharp my skills on it.

    Now, I'm in the process of improve the parsing to be robust like in Rust, so i can show good error messages:

    and also, hopefully, implement a solid type inference that work fine with the challenge of infer joins like "customer CROSS JOIN address".

    ---

    The idea, long-term, is create a tool alike MS Access/FoxPro+Excel that I think could be great for a lot of companies (that are using stuff like "BigData" tools -like hadoop- when them are struggling with more fundamental issues!) and improve the condition of make business apps/analysis.

    I already hear some interest when the vision is described in full, and I certain any company that use Excel/Access to deal with data and/or make business apps is anemically served by it.

    The alternatives now are only for the cloud, and I instead wanna a local-first/on-premise offering...
