Re: sourcefilter with complete parser?

[choroba]

XML::XSH2 defines its syntax and translates it into Perl (see also XML::XSH2::Compile. Also, PML-TQ has a language (two of them, in fact, one for queries and one for reports), both of them are parsed and translated either to Perl or SQL.

Thanks for the links very interesting.

But these are rather external DSLs for embedded scripts and not source-filters (or am I missing something?!?)

I'm sure they could be somehow used as source-filters but I'm interested to know if anyone every tried to do this.

external DSLs

True. I probably did not understand (or read) your question properly.
