Abstract

Source code generation is an essential part of wide range of applications, including transcompilers, parser generators and preprocessors. The common technology based on code templates is often cumbersome and error-prone. This paper introduces syngen, an automatic tool, written in Scheme, designed to produce frameworks for building syntactically correct fragments of source code.
