syntax-checking

The easy part: Targeting the .NET 2.0 framework in a Visual Studio 2010 project using the dropdown. The hard part: Is it possible to target a specific syntax version - for example var s = "hello world" is valid syntactic sugar in VS2008 and above, but would not compile in VS2005. Can VS2010 be configured to flag this at compile time? This can be done by specifying the language version in the project settings. To set the language version to C# 2.0 do the following Right Click on the project and select "Properties" Go to the "Build" Tab Click the "Advanced" Button Change the "Language Version"

we're currently setting up out integration server and during that process we've set up pre-commit hooks on the SVN so that our developers can't check in files that are syntactically invalid (primarily PHP and XML). We also have a bunch of .sql files (for MySQL) which I'd like to lint as well. Unfortunately, Google didn't turn up anything useful for this task. Any ideas? The commercial version of MySQL Workbench has a syntax checker for MySQL statements, but of course that would only cover the database aspects. See http://mysql.com/products/workbench/ (though I found the factoid in the help

I am currently working on a program that has an embedded text editor. The users are supposed to type java code in the editor. The code typed into the editor is then made into a string. I just want something that would check for missing parenthesis or a try without a catch, etc. It doesn't need to be compiled. I've looked around quite a bit, but I'm still new to programming and can't implement some of the harder stuff. So to make it shorter: I'm looking for some java package that will analyze code for syntax errors. As of Java 6 you can use JavaCompiler to compile the text and get back

I wrote this simple program today, but I found that cin.get() refuses to work unless there are 2 of them. Any ideas? #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main(){ int base; while ((base < 2) || (base > 36)){ cout << "Base (2-36):" << endl; cin >> base; } string base_str = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"; for (int i = 0; i < base; i++){ for (int j = 0; j < base; j++){ for (int k = 0; k < base; k++){ cout << base_str[i] << base_str[j] << base_str[k] << endl; } } } cin.get(); cin.get(); } if i move a cin.get() to before the nested loops, the loops run then pause. if i take one cin

I used to use perl -c programfile to check the syntax of a Perl program and then exit without executing it. Is there an equivalent way to do this for a Python script? Mark Johnson You can check the syntax by compiling it: python -m py_compile script.py user225312 You can use these tools: PyChecker Pyflakes Pylint Rosh Oxymoron import sys filename = sys.argv[1] source = open(filename, 'r').read() + '\n' compile(source, filename, 'exec') Save this as checker.py and run python checker.py yourpyfile.py .
