NAME

ssl ­ syntax/semantic language preprocessor, for parser description/generation

SYNOPSIS

ssl [ -TLs ] [ -E Name ] [ -D type ] [ -h file.sst.h ] [ -t file.sst.c ] [ -l file.lst ] [ -e file.entry ] [ -i file.ssl ]

DESCRIPTION

Ssl reads the input S/SL file, and produces C code. It accepts the following options:

-T

-L

Trace S/SL processor execution

Produce a listing of the S/SL source program with table coordinates in the left margin.

-s

-D Type

-E EnumName

Summarize usage of symbol and output tables.

Sets type of the S/SL table to Type. The default is int.

Sets name of the enumerated type list to EnumName, which will have nilEnumName as the first item in the enumeration (with a value of ­1). The default is no name.

-i file.ssl

-h file.sst.h

Input S/SL program file. The default is stdin.

Output C header file with the constant definitions for the program. The default is
`basename inputfile.ssl`.sst.h
.

-t file.sst.c

Output C S/SL program table file. The default is
`basename inputfile.ssl`.sst.c
.

-l file.lst

Output listing of the S/SL program with table coordinates in the left margin, if requested with the ­L option. The default is
`basename inputfile.ssl`.lst
.

-e file.entry

Entry points file. The default is
`basename inputfile.ssl`.entry
.
