Flatbuffers for PLC #6051

Closed tira-misu closed 3 years ago

tira-misu commented 4 years ago

Hello,

I am currently working on a code generator for PLC. The background: A PLC is used in the industry to control machines. It defines a text based programming language (IEC61131-3) called structured text.

What is your opinion about supporting a new programming language. Is this welcome or not? If so, which points in addition to the usual (code style guide, CI with tests) should I think about before I make a pull request (example for website, ...)? Is this welcome or not?

Thanks a lot and best regards Gunter

This appears to be a very limited and domain specific programming language, I wonder if it is suitable for reading a FlatBuffer?

The best way to see what is all required for a new language PR is to look at recent ones that have been merged, e.g. Swift, Kotlin, Rust, Dart, Lua...
