ast-cc is an Abstract Syntax Tree compiler. It will translate specifications into C++ code that can be included in a larger translation project. It is similar in nature to flex and bison and is intended to be part of the toolset for compiler creation.

Currently, ast-cc is in a simple form and does not have a mature command set. ast-cc only supports emitting C++ header files.

A significant rewrite of the command set and code generation routines was completed for version 0.1, which completely broke the specification language provided in v0.0. There is exactly no compatibility between the 2 pre-release versions. If you have used v0.0 for your own peoject, please be sure you understand the impacts to your project before installing any version after v0.0.

To build ast-cc, you will need flex and bison installed. A makefile is included for your convenience, however it does not check for the existence of the required tools. Please be sure you have the proper tools installed.

Documentation on the specification language is found here: https://github.com/eryjus/ast-cc/wiki/Source-API
