PHB Build Tools is a set of domain specific languages that automate many common coding tasks including:
-
Parsing command line options
-
Building portable graphical User Interfaces
-
Encoding and decoding ASN.1, JSON and other serializaation formats
-
Documenting code
-
Writing domain specific languages.
All the tools in PHB build tools are written using the Goedel code synthesis tool which is in turn written in Goedel.
Each of the tools is documented individually. The current set of tools is:
ASN
DNS
Domainer
Exceptional
FSRGen
Goedel3
GScript
MakeyMakey
Protogen
All the tools are written in C# and will run on any platform supported by .NET Core (i.e. Windows, OSX and Linux).
All the tools may be used in standalone mode from the console.
The tools have been implemented as Visual Studio extensions in the past, this stopped working with the move to .NET Core but may be fixed in the future.
