1 Winter Compiler Construction T5 AST Mooly Sagiv and Roman Manevich School of Computer Science Tel-Aviv University Today ic IC Language Today: EBNF Lexical Analysis Syntax Analysis Parsing AST construction AST traversal Visitor pattern AST Symbol Inter. Code Table Rep. Generation etc. (IR) Next week: Annotating ASTs Symbol tables Type-checking exe Executable code EBNF Extended Backus Naur form Extends BNF with regular expressions R* R+ (ABC) R? [R] [R] stands for optional part (same as R?) Not supported by CUP Translate EBNF rules to BNF list ::= x* list ::= x list x ::= y [z] x ::= y y z Abstract Syntax Trees Intermediate program representation Defines a tree What is the root of the AST? Preserves program hierarchy Node types defined by class hierarchy Generated by parser Keywords and punctuation symbols not stored (not relevant once parse tree exists) Provides clear interface to other compiler phases 4 Partial AST hierarchy for IC ASTNode Eclipse type hierarchy view Program ICClass Statement Method Field VirtualMethod StaticMethod LibraryMethod Expression Literal New Call Statement StatementBlock LocalVariable If While declaration 5 6 1

3 Single dispatch - polymorphism What if we need more operations? annotation void op() { void op() { void op() { conceptually, one-dimensional table op index A B C 1 void op1() { void op() { void op() { void op1() { void op() { void op() { void op1() { void op() { void op() { Want to separate complicated operations from data structures 14 What if we need more operations? Visitor pattern in Java class op1 { class op { class op { Problem: OO languages support only single-polymorphism. We seem to need double-polymorphism A x v.(this) v.(this) v.(this) interface Visitor { (A a) (B c) (C c) (A a) { (B c) { (C c) { class op implements Visitor { (A a) { (B c) { (C c) { class op implements Visitor { (A a) { (B c) { (C c) { Double dispatch example Double dispatch example class B { // always calls (B b) v.(this) nd dispatch Visitor v = new op1() // op1// A x = new B() // x can be A/B/C x.accept(v) (A a) { (B b) { class B { // always calls (B b) v.(this) nd dispatch Visitor v = new op1() // op1// A x = new B() // x can be A/B/C x.accept(v) (A a) { (B b) { x.accept(v) 17 v.(this) nd dispatch A B C op1 op1.(b b) op op Visitor pattern conceptually implements two-dimensional table 18
