FEDEX(1) General Commands Manual FEDEX(1) NAME fedex - EXPRESS Compiler SYNOPSIS fedex [ -e Express-schema-file ] [ -w warning-class ... ] [ -i warning- class ... ] DESCRIPTION fedex is an EXPRESS-based translator. It parses the EXPRESS language information model contained in the input EXPRESS file and sends warn- ings and errors to stdout. The `-w warning-class' and `-i warning-class' options are used to en- able or disable various categories of warning messages. These options are processed left-to-right, with later options overriding earlier ones. Any number of these options may appear in any order. During the parsing of the EXPRESS file, fedex detects any problems with the input schema. These problems are reported to the user, subject to the controls imposed by any `-w' and `-i' options. If no errors are encountered, fedex terminates with an appropriate message. OPTIONS To see a list of options, run fedex without any arguments.

BUGS Some Express language constructs are accepted by fedex but are not rep- resented in the Express Working Form, and so are not available during the output pass. These constructs include cardinality expressions, MAP directives, and supertype expressions. In addition, PRIVATE directives and WITH statements are represented in the Working Form, but are ig- nored during symbol lookup. This may produce spurious warnings about undefined or multiply defined identifiers. According to the rules of EXPRESS (STEP Part 11, Section 9.2.4.5), the AND operator has a higher precedence than ANDOR. fedex considers them to have an equal level of precedence and processes them from left to right. A work around would be to use paretheses around all AND opera- tors appearing in an expression. Expressions are not `type'd properly: although an expression's type can be derived from its components, this has not been implemented. This can result in spurious warnings. A notable example occurs when a com- plex expression used as a loop control (WHILE or UNTIL) does not appear to compute a boolean result simply because no type has been computed for the expression.
