asdlGen is a tool for generating data marshalling and
unmarshalling code from a high-level (ASDL) specification.
It can generate such code for sml, ocaml, ansi-c, java, haskell,
icon, c++.

The Abstract Syntax Description Lanuguage (ASDL) is a language
designed to describe the tree-like data structures in compilers.
Its main goal is to provide a method for compiler components
written in different languages to interoperate.

New port: devel/asdlgen generate serializers for C,C++,Haskell,Icon,Java,ML

        asdlGen generates data structure and serializer code from ASDL
        specifications [1]. It is especially helpful for exchanging
        tree like data structures between different programming languages.
        Currently C, C++, Haskell, Java, Icon, OCaml and SML are supported.
        Although the asdlGen project itself seems no longer actively
        maintained, ASDL is "alive" as it is used (at least) in the
        Moby [2] and Python [3,4] compilers.

        The port optionally installs a simple usage example [5] for all
        seven programming languages. I developed it primarily to test the
        port, but it could be helpful to users of asdlGen to get a quicker
        start, especially if a less familiar programming language is
        involved in their project. Reviewers/committers can easily make
        use of it via the "test-demo" target.
