Catspeak Reference

codegen

↳ struct CatspeakGMLCompiler

Responsible for the code generation stage of the Catspeak compiler.

This stage converts Catspeak IR, produced by CatspeakParser or CatspeakIRBuilder, into various lower-level formats. The most interesting of these formats is the conversion of Catspeak programs into native GML functions.

GameMaker Language (.gml)
Copyfunction is_catspeak(
  value : Any,
