The project is about taking any class dictionary and changing it to a new class dictionary that defines an XML language. We call this process XMLizing a class dictionary. (XMLize is a new word that we just invented.) The translation is useful for generating a visitor that prints out an object in XML form. translation from non-XML languages to XML languages having an alternative way to define an XML language (without using a DTD or an XML schema) A = B C. B = Float. C : X | Y. X = "x". Y = "y". XMLized: A = "" B C "". B = "" Float "". C : X | Y. X = "" "". Y = "" "". Notice the rules in this example: 1. Construction class A is mapped to "" ... "". 2. All concrete syntax from the original class dictionary is deleted. Notice how the "x" and "y" disappeared. 3. Alternation classes don't get delimiters "" ... "". In one application you can use DemeterJ to generate the print visitor from the XMLIzed class dictionary. An you can copy it into your original directory and call it XMLPrintVisitor. Maybe you can allow the user some control how the XMLization should be done. Proposed phase 1 Only construction and alternation classes as in the above example.
