Open Source Eiffel Libraries and Applications

(SmartEiffel and ISE Eiffel)


Other Library: GOBO Eiffel

Introduction

The GOBO project has the aim of bridging the portability gap between compilers (see the Gobo Eiffel Library Manifesto for more details). It also has a lot of useful useful functionality - an Eiffel yacc, lex, geant, xml parsers, unicode support. The elj libraries have some dependenices on GOBO and as such you will most likely be required to download this library.

The best place to obtain a copy of GOBO is from the GOBO Sourceforge CVS. This will ensure you have the most recent version available.

Details

The GOBO project is compiler and platform independent. Hence it will need to be boostraped to your system. The file readme.txt in the ${GOBO}/work/bootstrap/ directory will give you the necessary details to bootstrap GOBO.
