Problems with checkout of Py2mse

Hi Nelli,

Unfortunately, as you can see from the url, the project has been retired because it was not maintained anymore.

Furthermore, the code is available for VisualWorks and it is stored in the Store versioning system that is specific to VisualWorks. Thus, you cannot use Subversion for it.

But, perhaps you can tell us more about your context.

Cheers,
Doru

Hi Nelli,

I had a quick look at the py2mse parser together with Fabrizio Perin from the
University of Bern.

First thing: in order to use the parser you have to load the PythonDevelopment
bundle from the Bern store. Once you do that you have to go to the class side
of the PythonCode class and find the method named py2mse. The body of that
method is a python script that exports the AST of the analyzed python file to
a mse format. Running the parser on its own code worked well, so theoretically
you can use it.

Then in VisualWorks you're supposed to import that model and convert it to
a FAMIX-like meta-model. This part seems to be broken at the moment
and unfortunately I am not sure who has time to work on this. It looks like
somebody needs to declare the classes for the python metamodel inside
VisualWorks. I am not sure that is the only problem though, so I can't estimate
the effort.

The alternatives are implementing a new parser using PetitParser (Fabrizio
swears it's easy to do) that would parse python code, or one converter from
the AST that is exported by py2mse to a FAMIX metamodel.

Hope this helps,

Cheers,
M.
