Mdef Example

Here is a code generation example using MDef (http://mdef.sourceforge.net):

mdef program
program-headers
program-main
mend
mdef program-headers
#include
mend
mdef program-main
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
program-body
}
mend
mdef program-body
printf("hello world\n");
return 0;
mend
program


Save this to hello.m. Then type

perl mdef.pl hello.m > hello.c
gcc hello.c
./a.out


This will print "hello world".

Note that everything here is reusable except for the program-body.
