CodeGenerator (Rats! Parser Generator 2.4.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- xtc.tree.Visitor
- - xtc.parser.CodeGenerator

```
public class CodeGenerator
extends Visitor
```
The code generator.
The code generator makes the following assumptions about the intermediate language:
- The entire grammar is contained in a single module.
- All imported types have been registered with AST.importType(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) and all imported modules have been registered with AST.importModule(java.lang.String).
- If the grammar references any types that may be locatable (as opposed to definitely being or not being locatable), the grammar must have a locatable property with value Boolean.TRUE.
- If the grammar contains any generic values, the grammar must have a generic property with value Boolean.TRUE.
- If the grammar contains any action base values, generic action value, or generic recursion values, the grammar must have a recursive property with value Boolean.TRUE.
- Each production must be a full production and must have been annotated with the appropriate meta-data.
- Generally, all options, repetitions, and nested ordered choices must have been desugared into equivalent productions. However, an ordered choice may appear as the last element of a sequence (that is not part of a predicate), a repetition may appear if the list of repeated expressions need not be memoized, an an option may appear if its value is not bound or depends on a single bound element.
- The element of a repetition must be a sequence (with the last element possibly being an ordered choice; see previous assumption). If the repetition is bound, Analyzer.bind(List) must be able to capture the semantic value of the repeated element.
- The element of a option must be a sequence (with the last element possibly being an ordered choice). If the option is bound, Analyzer.bind(List) must be able to capture the semantic value of the optional element.
- The element of a string match must be a nonterminal.
- The element of a FollowedBy or NotFollowedBy predicate must be a sequence.
- All elements in a character switch must either be ordered choices or sequences. Furthermore, character switches may only appear as the last element in a sequence and not within predicates.
