20.500.12556/DKUM-27385 A preliminary study on various implementation approaches of domain-specific language Various implementation approaches for developing a domain-specific language are available in literature. There are certain common beliefs about the advantages/disadvantages of these approaches. However, it is hard to be objective and speak in favor of a particular one, since these implementation approaches are normally compared over diverse application domains. The purpose of this paper is to provide empirical results from ten diverse implementation approaches for domain-specific languages, but conducted using the same representative language. Comparison shows that these discussed approaches differ in terms of the effort need to implement them, however, the effort needed by a programmer to implement a domain-specific language should not be the only factor taken into consideration. Another important factor is the effort needed by an end-user to rapidly write correct programs using the produced domain-specific language. Therefore, this paper also provides empirical results on end-user productivity, which is measured as the lines of code needed to express a domain-specific program, similarity to the original notation, and how error-reporting and debugging are supported in a given implementation. domain-specific languages embedded approach preprocessing compiler/interpreter generator extesible compiler/interpreter true false false Angleški jezik Angleški jezik Neznano 2012-06-01 10:55:49 2012-06-01 10:55:49 2022-04-15 03:44:15 2019-07-10 12:16:02 2008 0 0 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 004.43 11399958 0950-5849 URN:SI:UM:DK:B28J02S3 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.infsof.2007.04.002 1 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=36679 Fakulteta za elektrotehniko, računalništvo in informatiko 0 0 0
