Compiler Design Lab

Overview

Welcome to the Compiler Design Lab repository! This repository contains the source code and documentation for a comprehensive exploration of compiler design concepts. From Lexical Analysis to Three Address Code we've got you covered.

Features

• Lexical Analysis: Implementation of lexical analysis to tokenize source code.
• Syntax Analysis: Building parsers to validate the syntax of programming languages.
• Three-Address Code: Generation of intermediate code for efficient code representation.
• ANTLR4: Utilization of ANTLR4 parser generator for parsing tasks.
• BISON: Integration of BISON parser generator for syntax analysis.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following tools installed on your system:

• ANTLR4: ANTLR (ANother Tool for Language Recognition) is a powerful parser generator. To install it, follow these steps:

  • Linux/Unix:

    sudo apt-get install antlr4

  • macOS:

    brew install antlr

  • Windows:

    You can download the ANTLR4 JAR files from the official ANTLR website (https://www.antlr.org/download.html).

• BISON: Bison is a parser generator that is essential for syntax analysis. To install it, follow these steps:

  • Linux/Unix:

    sudo apt-get install bison

  • macOS:

    brew install bison

  • Windows:

    You can download Bison for Windows from the GNU website (https://www.gnu.org/software/bison/).

Installation

1. Clone the Repository:

       git clone https://github.com/your-username/Compiler-Design-Lab.git
   

2. Explore the Code: Dive into the source code to understand the implementations and algorithms used for each compiler component.

3. Build and Run: Follow the provided instructions in each subdirectory to build and run different parts of the compiler.
