Does anyone out there know about examples and the theory behind parsers that will take (maybe) an abstract syntax tree and produce code, instead of vice-versa. Mathematically, at least intuitively, I believe the function of code->AST is reversible, but I’m trying to find work/examples of this… besides the usual resources like the Dragon book and such. Any ideas?
Such thing is called a Visitor. Is traverses the tree and does whatever has to be done, for example optimize or generate code.
