I know, it is off-topic, but this is Xmas so everyone loves everyone
and helps them :-) And there are many programmers here and I do not
see where to ask otherwise.
I'm looking for a program which would allow to:
* someone describes a binary format (MPEG, PNG, tcpdump's trace, an
OSPF packet, whatever) in a DSL (domain-specific language). Unlike
ASN/1, this DSL would describe not only the data model but also the
actual layout of the fields.
* the program translates this description into a decoder (for instance
in C but other languages are under consideration).
* the decoder, available as a library, reads the binary file, checks
the values and fills in data structures of the program.
On Sourceforge, I've found only very alpha tools like:
http://file-spector.sourceforge.net/ (and it misses the DSL, you have
to describe the binary format with a GUI)
