GF Version 3.1.6 Release Notes
|
|
23 April 2010
|
|
|
|
|
|
=Installation=
|
|
|
|
The binaries now work out of the box for each platform and support
|
|
completions (file names and parsing), because readline has been
|
|
changed to haskeline.
|
|
|
|
To compile from source, GHC 6.12 is now required. But GHC is not needed
|
|
if the binary executables are used.
|
|
|
|
Binaries (``.gfo`` and ``.pgf`` files) compiled with GF 3.1 are incompatible
|
|
with 3.1.6 and must either be removed; alternatively, the ``-src`` flag can be
|
|
used when compiling.
|
|
|
|
Notice the new place to send bug reports (see GF's welcome message)!

=New features=
|
|
|
|
Grammar language
|
|
- improved support for dependent types (see ``SUMO``, ``nqueens`` in ``examples``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shell commands and options (see ``help`` in GF for more information)
|
|
- ``eb``: example-based grammar file conversion
|
|
(see ``examples/animals/QuestionI.gf``)
|
|
- ``vd = visualize_dependency``: show dependency tree
|
|
- ``vp = visualize_parse``: show parse tree
|
|
- ``gr, gt, mq, tq``: use a seed tree with metavariables
|
|
- ``gr, p, tq``: use ``-probs=FILE`` to bias or rank generated trees
|
|
- ``gt`` now tries the different alternatives in the order in which they appear in the source code
|
|
- ``dg``: hide modules when printing dependency graph
|
|
- -output-format=lambda_prolog let us to use Lambda Prolog for exhaustive generation with dependent types
|
|
|
|
|
|
Libraries
|
|
- Urdu completed (Shafqat Virk)
|
|
- Turkish morphology + Zamberek's dictionary in GF (Server Cimen)
|

Examples
|
|
- SUMO
|
|
- phrasebook
|
|
- nqueens
|
|
|
|
|
|
Internal
|
|
- single PMCFG format for both linearization and parsing
|
|
- use of Haskeline for completion - more portable than Readline
|
|
- unicode support from Haskell 6.12 instead of home-made coding
|
|
|
|
|
|
==Issues==
|
|
|
|
Javascript generation is not updated to the new PGF format.
|
|
[GF 3.1 old-index.html] should still be used for building Javascript applications.
