Title: Beyond Grammars and Parsing
Abstract: I will discuss how grammar models can be used to define syntax and static semantics of programming languages, and what the limitations of such models are. I will then talk about “projectional editing”, which enables direct manipulation of abstract syntax trees and does not require parsing. The talk is based on papers at STAF 2020 [ http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2707/oopslepaper4.pdf ] and NIK 2020 [ https://ojs.bibsys.no/index.php/NIK/article/view/839 ].
