No, it looks like some kind of s-expression version of the Swift AST. It could have been in XML format or something else. Lists seem to be popular for it - somehow.
Not everything which uses a notation similar to s-expressions has anything to do Lisp.
- outworlder 11y agoTrue, but it could be turned into executable Lisp code without much effort. As could a XML format version of it. Besides, square brackets is the most common representation of lists. It's difficult to find round brackets denoting lists outside of Lisp and dialets. I doubt that's a coincidence. Given that Apple already uses Scheme in its sandbox implementation [1], it wouldn't be too outlandish to assume those are related somehow. The notation is a bit off, but it's nothing a few macros wouldn't solve. [1] http://lemonodor.com/archives/2007/10/sexprs_in_leopard.html http://lemonodor.com/archives/2007/10/sexprs_in_leopard.html

The notation is a bit off, but it's nothing a few macros wouldn't solve. They both use parentheses. They are related. Somehow.
