COMPILER WRITING SYSTEM DETAIL DESIGN SPECIFICATION VOLUME 2: COMPONENT SPECIFICATION

摘要

Volume II of the Compiler Writing System design specification 1s contained herein. It consists of five sections and an appendix. Each section describes a system component, either a program logic module or an external data file.nSection 1 describes the logic modules and data structures composing the Meta-Translator module. This module is responsible for the actual generation of the executable language compiler as a function of the input Meta-Language. Machine definitions are also processed and are placed as encoded data on the Compiler Library Data File.nSection 2 presents the Source Processor design. Logic modules and internal data structures are described as well as the collection of semantic support functions facilitating the generation of Function Language.nSection 3 defines the logic modules and internal data structures of the Function Processor. The algorithms and effects of local and global optimization, and the code generation methodology are presented.nSection 4 deals with defining the optionally Invoked Operation Processor Pass II. The transformation of intermediate language in Target Language object text 1s described.
