New Features of Eli Version 4.4

New functionality for unparser generation

Textual representations of tree-structured data objects can now be produced in five standard forms: a generic functional notation (as with Eli 4.3.x), an XML description of the data object, C++ code that will re-build the data object, Java code that will re-build the data object, and code describing the graph to the daVinci graph visualization tool (assumes daVinci 2.1, found at http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/daVinci/). It is also possible for the user to specify their own notation for describing tree-structured data objects (see Languages describing tree structure of Abstract Syntax Tree Unparsing).

Default output for terminal symbols has now been provided. The default assumes that the internal representation for the terminal symbol is a string table index. Token processors establish the internal representations for terminal symbols; mkidn and mkstr result in string table indices, whereas mkint does not. If you want to unparse a tree whose terminal symbols are not represented by string table indices, you need to override the default output (see Overriding PTG patterns of Abstract Syntax Tree Unparsing).
