Macro processing in high-level languages
A. Sakharov · ACM SIGPLAN Notices · 1992
A macro language is proposed. It enables macro processing in high-level programming languages. Macro definitions in this language refer to the grammars of the respective programming languages. These macros introduce new constructs in programming languages. It is described how to automatically generate macro processors from macro definitions and programming language grammars written in the lex-yacc format. Examples of extending high-level languages by means of macros are given.
