Gadfly 1.0: An SQL Database in PythonGadfly/kwParsing downloads and documentation.Gadfly requires the kwParsing parser/parser generator package. The "two packages" are released as one distribution (kwP) with the same generous copyright. Download kwP.tar.gz in tar-gz format with tar.gz extension. Download kwP.tgz in tar-gz format with tgz extension. [The tar.gz extension doesn't always work for MSIE browsers.] Gadfly frequently asked questions (FAQ). General information with links to other documentation, including installation instructions. |

These are the core files to the
Gadfly SQL database engine
A relational database query engine that supports
the Structured Query Language (SQL), implemented entirely
in Python (with optional builtin support from the
kjbuckets builtin data structure accelerator).
Gadfly has been tested on Windows 95, Windows NT, Linux, and Unix (solaris), and it should run anywhere that Python runs (bebox, maybe Palm Pilot/WinCE eventually...) Supports transactions and recovery Supports a LARGE subset of SQL Supports client/server access via TCP/IP sockets. Many thanks to users who have used Gadfly in previous releases and who have offered suggestions and bug reports! |
kwParser, Python lint, IDL, etc...
kwParser is a parser generator for Python. It transforms an abstract specification of a language grammar (for example the CORBA Interface Definition Language) together with "interpretation functions" that define the semantics of the language into a compiler or translator or interpreter. In the case of CORBA IDL a python program using kwParser could generate stubs and support code (in Python or some other language) to talk to a CORBA interface.The release given here has had some micro-optimizations (26 June 1997) which with luck don't break anything. In particular regexen are used more intelligently and the generation phase will use kjbuckets if it's available.
This is moderately heavy computer science. Not for the timid.
| COPYRIGHT | Do what you like, just don't sue me (roughly translated). |
| DLispShort.py | A very simple example language specification. |
| DumbLispGen.py | Another example specification |
| arefize.py | (not related: simple program used to generate this page) |
| idl.py | A very complex example: CORBA IDL parser generator. This is a good example of a complex grammar. The interpretation functions and terminal regexes are all stubbed. |
| pygram.py | A very complex example: The python grammar.
This module uses a hand written lexer to handle
Python's beautiful peculiarities. Used by kypylint.py. Look at the top of the module for editable parameters. |
| kjpylint.py | An attempt to use the pygram parser to do simple
checking on python source files. Reports references
not set, assignments not used, etcetera. not all warnings
indicate real problems of course. Used like this:

Grumpy about one line for loops and lambdas. For very weird cases may not parse strings correctly. See top of module for more info. Right now kjpylint might like to see an extra newline at the end of the file. I'll look into this, sorry. Latest: Thu Jul 17 13:50:03 EDT 1997 |

| kjSet.py | support module for parser generation. (uses kjbuckets builtin if available, or uses a straight Python implementation if not.) |
