Project Description

This project implements a custom, Turkish-inspired programming language lexical and syntax analyzer using JAVA. It is built by modifying and extending the recursive-descent parser and lexical analysis structure provided in Chapter 4 of Robert W. Sebesta's Concepts of Programming Languages.

• Implementation Language: JAVA
• Target Framework/Compiler: javac

---

How to Compile the Project

To compile the project, open your terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory containing the source code, and run the following command based on your operating system:

• Windows:

  javac PLProject.java

• Mac / Linux:

  javac PLProject.java

---

How to Run the Project

After a successful compilation, you can execute the program using the following commands. By default, the program is configured to read the source code from a file named front.in in the same directory.

• Windows:

  chcp 65001
  java PLProject

• Mac / Linux:

  java PLProject

Note: To test different files, copy the content of the desired test file into front.in or modify the fopen function inside PLProject.java with the respective filename before compiling.

Test Files Reference

Valid Test Files

The following files contain syntactically and lexically correct source code written in our custom language:

1. Variable declarations and assignments.txt
2. Arithmetic expressions.txt
3. Conditional statements.txt
4. Loop structures.txt

Invalid Test File

The following file contains an intentional syntax error to demonstrate the compiler's error reporting and detection capabilities:

• Invalid.txt: Contains a missing right parenthesis in the condition block (eger (a == b {), which successfully triggers the internal error mechanism (eger kosulunda ')' eksik!).
