| Sparse is a semantic parser of source files: it's neither a compiler |
| (although it could be used as a front-end for one) nor is it a |
| preprocessor (although it contains as a part of it a preprocessing |
| phase). |
| |
| It is meant to be a small - and simple - library. Scanty and meager, |
| and partly because of that easy to use. It has one mission in life: |
| create a semantic parse tree for some arbitrary user for further |
| analysis. It's not a tokenizer, nor is it some generic context-free |
| parser. In fact, context (semantics) is what it's all about - figuring |
| out not just what the grouping of tokens are, but what the _types_ are |
| that the grouping implies. |
