The packages in this library provide support for implementing an interpreter or compiler.

The classes in the edu.calvin.compilers.hobbes.environment package provide run-time support for environments. See IEnvironment for more information.

The classes in the edu.calvin.compilers.hobbes.tir package (and its subpackages) implement Tree Intermediate Representations (TIR) for common language structures. These classes can be processed through the visitor pattern using the visitors in org.norecess.citkit.hobbes.visitors.

The classes in the edu.calvin.compilers.hobbes.types package implement representations for data types. Their main intent is for a type-checking system in a compiler.

The classes in the edu.calvin.compilers.hobbes.lir package implement representations for a Linear Intermediate Representation (LIR) as suggested by Stephen Muchnick in Advanced Compiler Design Implementation. While the other classes in this library have been used in many projects, these LIR classes are not nearly as well tested in the real world.
