Principle Structure and Architecture of a Code Generator

Authors:
Andreas Schmidt

Keywords: Code generation; template system; (meta) model; model transformation.

Abstract:
Code generators often have something mystical about them. Especially undergraduate students, who can still remember their first steps in programming, become in awe when they hear the term "Software generator". The paper is an attempt to take this awe away from the students and to show them, by means of a very simple example implementation with well-known tools and technologies, that software generators are not witches' work, but a powerful, but easily understandable tool to support the software development process.
