Files description:

• Makefile: self explanatory, the file for the make command;
• Pascal.g4: the file that contains the grammar that the parser will use;
• Syncheck.cpp: the file that use the parser to see if the Pascal code has one or more syntax errors;
• Test: directory that contains some tests.

Set up:

You need to download ANTLR v4 from the official page and the c++ runtime dev, libantlr4-runtime-dev.

Usage:

First use the command make (to reverse it use make clean). Then when all files are created, you can execute the syncheck output file and use a test file as argument Example:

./syncheck test/valid.pas

Usage note:

If you try to use tests that you find in the test directory, it's normal that test from 5 to 8 output "1 syntax error found".

This is a little project I made as a test for my university (Universita' Degli Studi di Padova), so part of the project is the foundation they gave me to build all.
