Gidl

Gidl (for Galois Interface Description Language) is a simple IDL for describing structured types.

IDL format

See example in tests/example.idl. Currently, the format is not set in stone - revisions coming shortly.

Backends

Gidl currently has backends for:

  • Native Haskell
  • [Ivory][] language
  • [Tower][] wrapper over Ivory

Build and Test

Use the create-sandbox target in the Makefile to create a local cabal sandbox and install all dependencies.

The default target builds the gidl library. You can then use cabal run gidl -- <OPTIONS> to run the code generator. Use the --help option to get usage information.

Use the test target in the Makefile to generate and test each backend implementation.
