tree to source-code

[rost at lo-res dot org]

sorry for cross-posting but I got the impression gcc-help might not be the
list to discuss gcc internals. If in any way I'm wrong, I'm sorry for
that.

Subject: tree to source-code

Hi,

I am new to this list so please excuse any FAQ.

I was wondering if there is any module already included in the gcc-3.1
release to print C++-source code based on the internal tree data
structure (or any external projects working on this).

To make my idea more clear: What I am thinking about is to alter the
tree structure of a C++ source file (like adding statements,
renaming variables, whatever) and spitting out the whole tree as a
"human"-readable (as well as compilable) C++ code again.

Please note that readability is not the major factor, so I can live
without all stuff which got lost during preprocessing.

I am browsing the source of files like print-tree.c and tree-dump.c at the
moment without much luck, so any hints would be warmly welcome.

Thanks for any help,
Robert
