State of the Art Tools for Rapid Compiler Development
What is Compiler? A compiler is a computer program that helps you to transform the source code from a high-level language into the machine code. It plays an important role in the working of a system as it performs the task of translating the code written from one programming language to another without modifying the true meaning of the program code. The compiler also has the responsibility of making the code effective when it comes to execution time and the space required. Features of Compiler Compilation speed. The correctness of machine code. The meaning of code should not change. Speed of machine code. Good error detection. Checking the code correctly according to grammar. Compiler Construction Tools Compiler construction tools are also known as compiler-generators or translators. They use specific algorithms for defining and implementing the component of the compiler. 1. Parser Generators. A parser generator takes grammar as input and automatically generates source code ...
