Subject: v06i048: English<->C translator for C declarations (cdecl)
Newsgroups: mod.sources
Approved: rs@mirror.UUCP
Submitted by: Chris Torek <cybvax0!harvard!mimsy.umd.edu!gymble!chris>
Mod.sources: Volume 6, Issue 48
Archive-name: cdecl
Cdecl has been on the net for a while, but never in mod.sources, or the
archives. It was written by Graham Ross, once at tektronix!tekmdp!grahamr.
USG sites should add "-DINDEX=strchr" to the CFLAGS entry in the Makefile.

X.TH CDECL 1
X.SH NAME
cdecl \- Compose C declarations
X.SH SYNOPSIS
X.B cdecl
X.SH DESCRIPTION
X.I Cdecl
is a program for encoding and decoding C type-declarations.
It reads standard input for statements in the language described below.
The results are written on standard output.
X.PP
X.I Cdecl's
scope is intentionally small.
It doesn't help you figure out storage classes or initializations.
X.SH "COMMAND LANGUAGE"
There are four statements in the language.
The "declare" statement composes a C type-declaration
from a verbose description.
The "cast" statement composes a C type-cast
as might appear in an expression.
The "explain" statement decodes a C type-declaration, producing a
verbose description.
The "help" statement describes the others.
X.PP
The following grammar describes the language.
In the grammar, words in "<>" are non-terminals,
bare lower-case words are terminals that stand for themselves.
Bare upper-case words are other lexical tokens:
NOTHING means the empty string;
NAME means a C identifier;
NUMBER means a string of decimal digits; and
NL means the new-line character.
X.LP
X.nf
<program> ::= NOTHING
| <program> <stat> NL
<stat> ::= NOTHING
| declare NAME as <decl>
| cast NAME into <decl>
| explain <cdecl>
| help
<decl> ::= array of <decl>
| array NUMBER of <decl>
| function returning <decl>
| function ( NAME ) returning <decl>
| pointer to <decl>
| <type>
<cdecl> ::= <cdecl1>
| * <cdecl>
<cdecl1> ::= <cdecl1> ( )
| <cdecl1> [ ]
| <cdecl1> [ NUMBER ]
| ( <cdecl> )
| NAME
<type> ::= <typename> | <modlist>
| <modlist> <typename>
| struct NAME | union NAME | enum NAME
<typename> ::= int | char | double | float
<modlist> ::= <modifier> | <modlist> <modifier>
<modifier> ::= short | long | unsigned
X.fi
X.SH EXAMPLES
To declare an array of pointers to functions like malloc(3), do
X.Ex
declare fptab as array of pointer to function returning pointer to char
X.Ee
The result of this command is
X.Ex
char *(*fptab[])()
X.Ee
When you see this declaration in someone else's code, you
can make sense out of it by doing
X.Ex
explain char *(*fptab[])()
X.Ee
The proper declaration for signal(2) cannot be described in
X.IR cdecl 's
language (it can't be described in C either).
An adequate declaration for most purposes is given by
X.Ex
declare signal as function returning pointer to function returning int
X.Ee
The function declaration that results has two sets of empty parentheses.
The author of such a function might wonder where the parameters go.
X.Ex
declare signal as function (args) returning pointer to function returning int
X.Ee
provides the solution:
X.Ex
int (*signal(args))()
X.Ee
X.SH DIAGNOSTICS
The declare statement tries to point out constructions
that are not supported in C.
Also, certain non-portable constructs are flagged.
X.PP
Syntax errors cause the parser to play dead until a newline is read.
X.SH "SEE ALSO"
Section 8.4 of the C Reference Manual.
X.SH BUGS
The pseudo-English syntax is excessively verbose.
