About:
Gobo is a comprehensive suite of free and portable Eiffel tools and libraries. It provides essential utilities like a preprocessor, a pattern matching library, and a kernel library to enhance the Eiffel development workflow. This collection enables developers to write more robust and portable Eiffel software across various platforms.
Key Features:
  • Eiffel preprocessor for conditional compilation
  • Pattern matching library for string and data processing
  • Kernel library extensions for core Eiffel functionality
  • Cross-platform compatibility
Use Cases:
  • Developing complex Eiffel applications requiring advanced string manipulation
  • Maintaining large Eiffel codebases with conditional compilation needs
  • Porting Eiffel software to different operating systems
Alternatives:
  • EiffelStudio – EiffelStudio is the primary IDE and compiler; Gobo complements it with additional libraries and tools rather than replacing it.
