PUMA Library Reference Manual

This is the class documentation of the PUMA library. PUMA is an extensible C/C++ source code analysis and transformation library written in C++.

See puma.aspectc.org for more information.

The main classes of the library are the following.

Source directory, error, and configuration handling

• Puma::ErrorStream - Error output stream
• Puma::Config - Library configuration
• Puma::Project - Source directory operations

Lexical analysis

• Puma::Lexer - Base class for language specific source code tokenizers
• Puma::Token - Language token
• Puma::Unit - Tokenized source file or code snippet

Preprocessing

• Puma::PreprocessorParser - The C preprocessor parser
• Puma::PreTree - Base class for C preprocessor syntax tree nodes

Syntactic analysis

• Puma::Syntax - Base class for language specific syntax analyses
• Puma::Builder - Base class for language specific syntax tree builders
• Puma::CTree - Base class for syntax tree nodes for C, C++ and derived languages

Semantic analysis

• Puma::Semantic - Base class for language specific semantic analyses
• Puma::CSemDatabase - Semantic information database

Parsing (chaining of lexical, syntactic, and semantic analysis)

• Puma::Parser - Base class for language specific parsers
• Puma::CTranslationUnit - Translation unit for C, C++ and derived languages

Transformation (source code manipulation)

• Puma::CVisitor - Puma::CTree syntax tree visitor
• Puma::ManipCommander - Token chain manipulation
