There used to be lots of little declarative DSLs. Think make. Now they have been co-opted by XML. Ant uses XML, but would be much prettier if it had its own DSL. XML is orthogonal: it is just another way of expressing the syntax of a DSL. Ant's build file format may be ugly, but it is also a DSL (it is just syntactically encoded using XML). |
