What is C-Breeze?
C-Breeze is an infrastructure for building C compilers. It is written in C++, and consists of a set of classes for representing a C program as an abstract syntax tree (AST). It includes many support classes for inspecting, manipulating, and analyzing the program in the AST form. We also provide a front end that parses C code (ANSI/ISO 9899-1990 standard) and generates the initial AST.
Building a compiler with C-Breeze
The overall process of building a C-Breeze compiler is as follows:
Download and upack the C-Breeze source.
Fix the Makefile.inc to reflect your local configuration.
Compile the classes to produce libc-breeze.a
Define one or more new compiler Phases.
Compile your new Phases and link against libc-breeze.a to produce an executable.
System requirements
The C-Breeze code itself is quite portable, but the C compilers built using C-Breeze can only compile C89 code. Therefore, C-Breeze compilers must have a C89-compliant preprocessor and C89-friendly system header files. We have found that the following configuration works well:
Compile the C-Breeze classes using g++ 3.x
Provide gcc 2.95.x (and accompanying header files) for your C-Breeze compiler to use as the preprocessor.
Citing C-Breeze

Passes
C-Breeze provides some built-in passes that process C code at various levels:
AST level passes
After initial parsing, C-Breeze represents C programs in a high-level AST form.
CFG/Dismantled level passes
Most analysis and optimization passes use a dismantled form of the AST that resembles a three-address code.
Backend passes
We currently provide an assembly code backend as well as a C-code backend ("unparsing"
