Quick Start

1. Download the Source Distribution of JBurg, or get it from CVS: cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.jburg.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/jburg co jburg

2. Third party tools required:
   • ANTLR 2.7.1 required to build and run JBurg.
   • BCEL 5.0 (beta is OK), and JavaCC 2.1 to build TL/1.

3. Hand-edit jburg/build.xml and jburg/test/tl1/build.xml to set the paths to the JBurg source and the tools (gotta study up and figure out why ant doesn't pick up $HOME).

   Or just define your roots on the command line, for example:

   ant -DProjectRoot=jburgRoot -DtoolsRoot=rootDirForTools

4. ant parser classes in the jburg directory builds JBurg as discrete classes.

   ant parser jarfile builds JBurg and creates bin/jburg.jar.

5. ant in the jburg/test/tl1 directory builds the TL/1 compiler and runs the "Hello, World/14" example.

Other targets in the tl1 build file:

• classes recompiles everything
• reducer runs JBurg and creates jburg/test/tl1/reducer/TL1Reducer.java
• example runs the TL/1 compiler against a .tl1 file which is assumed to live in the examples directory; the name given to the build doesn't need the .tl1 extension and I think the build file would misbehave if it saw it.

  For example, to run examples/myTL1.tl1, the ant line is:

  ant example -DexClass=myTL1
