8   Utilities

Different pieces of code, not specifically attributed to any other package, but useful for more than one other package.

8.1   Pretty-Printer

Responsible: Karsten Stahl, Martin Steffen



A simple pretty-printer with tabulated ascii-output, primarily intended for diagnosis. It should be used for testing and debugging the other parts already during development.

Interface

The pretty-printer can used (and is supposed to be used) by everyone for debugging. The only interfac that counts is the abstract syntax, which must be printable. The interface is partially implemented, for the usage, see utils.PpExample. Besides the print-for whole programs, the same methods is provided publicly also for other syntactic constructs to make them printable for diagnosis.
