**************************************
A Rudimentary Bibtex Query Processor
**************************************
Author: Emaad Ahmed Manzoor (2008A7PS068G)
Quick Start
=============
$ make compiler
$ ./compiler EMOO.bib
$ make query
$ ./query "select * from bibtab;"
Generated Files
=================
Intermediate File: out.sql
Generated Database: bibtex.db
Table Of Bibtex Entries: bibtab
Supported Queries
===================
The query processor is sqlite3, so
all sqlite3 queries are supported.
Limitations
=============
- TeX macros of the form \<macro> are
retained, but all internal single
quotes are stripped out, including
the ones of the form \'.
- All braces are stripped out.
- Valgrind reports:
*definitely lost: 582,790 bytes*
This is when run on EMOO.bib, all
from "compiler.l", at the line:
318: yylval.str = strdup(yytext);
I'm not happy with this, I did spend
hours cleaning up my pointers, but
I hope it's enough for now, to get
by in a relative grading scenario.
