I have an AST generated via ANTLR, and I need to convert it to a DLR-compatible one (Expression Trees). However, it would seem that i can't use tree pattern matchers for this as expression trees need their subtrees at instantiation (which i can't get). What solution would be best for me to use?

How exactly is an Abstract Syntax Tree created?

as seen on Programmers - Search for 'Programmers'
I think I understand the goal of an AST, and I've build a couple of tree structures before, but never an AST. I'm mostly confused because the nodes are text and not number, so I can't think of a nice way to input a token/string as I'm parsing some code. For example, when I looked at diagrams of… >>> More

My collegue suggested me to write a visitor pattern to navigate the AST. Can anyone tell me more how would I start writing it?

What is the difference between an Abstract Syntax Tree and a Concrete Syntax Tree?

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
I've been reading a bit about how interpreters/compilers work, and one area where I'm getting confused is the difference between an AST and a CST. My understanding is that the parser makes a CST, hands it to the semantic analyzer which turns it into an AST. However, my understanding is that the… >>> More
Representing C#3 code as an Abstract Syntax Tree in XML

I was wondering if there is something similar to GCC_XML for C#3; basically a way to represent a program's entire syntactic structure in XML. Once the representation is created, I was hoping to parse it into an XDocument and interpret or query it from there. Are there tools out there for this? >>> More
