| Subject: | camlp4 vs SYB in Haskell |
Folks, I just posted a review of my experience developing a compiler from a trading language into C# [1]. One thing I compare is the Scrap Your Boilerplate approach in Haskell [2] vs fold generators in camlp4. I received the following comment in response: "Also, can you elaborate on the semantic consequences of using strongly typed SYB traversals on the Haskell side, versus macro/token stuff on the OCaml side? Aren't they wildly different techniques?" I'll be looking into what Nicolas does with the camlp4 generators but would also appreciate suggestions on how to properly answer this challenge.
