Re: Adding SystemVerilog support in Semantic

I tried to help write SystemVerilog parser for semantic at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wisentsverilog/

As I recall this project stalled due to Andrea, the project leader, and me
not
being able to get our emacs to behave the same.  I use emacs 24.3, as well
as
my own build of emacs from source code at git://
git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git.
I use GNU/Linux only; no windows.

I'm still interested in getting this thing done, because many of my
colleagues
would love to use this.  If you would like to take the lead, then I can help
you with writing parser and documenting not only the parser, but also
SystemVerilog itself in texinfo so that it can be hooked up to emacs via
info-lookup-symbol.

My software experience is with C++, python, and emacs-lisp among others.
However I don't know SystemVerilog or other hardware description
languages.  My
contribution would be in helping write the parser as well as in
documentation.
I have experience in writing parsers using bison as well as semantic, e.g.,
I
wrote the original python parser for semantic about 12 years ago.

Let me know if you are interested in bringing up SystemVerilog parser.
