Open Source Code Generators

SWIG is a software development tool that connects programs written in C and C++ with a variety of high-level programming languages. SWIG is used with different types of target languages including common scripting languages such as Javascript, Perl, PHP, Python, Tcl and Ruby. The list of supported languages also includes non-scripting languages such as C#, D, Go language, Java, Lua, OCaml, Octave, R and Scilab as well as the Guile implementation of the Scheme language. SWIG is most commonly used to create high-level interpreted or compiled programming environments, user interfaces, and as a tool for testing and prototyping C/C++ software. SWIG is typically used to parse C/C++ interfaces and generate the 'glue code' required for the above target languages to call into the C/C++ code. SWIG can also export its parse tree in the form of XML.

The Lazarus IDE is a stable and feature rich visual programming environment for the FreePascal Compiler. It supports the creation of self-standing graphical and console applications and runs on Linux, FreeBSD, MacOSX and Windows.

Re2c is a tool for writing very fast and very flexible scanners. Unlike any other such tool, re2c focuses on generating high efficient code for regular expression matching. As a result this allows a much broader range of use than any traditional lexer.

The gSOAP toolkit is an extensive suite of portable C and C++ software to develop XML Web services with powerful type-safe XML data bindings.

Includes WSDL/XSD schema binding and auto-coding tools, stub/skeleton compiler, Web server integration with Apache module and IIS extension, high-performance XML processing with schema validation, fast MIME/MTOM streaming, SOAP and REST Web API development, WS-* protocols (WS-Security, WS-Policy, WS-ReliableMessaging, etc), XML-RPC and JSON. Licensed under GPLv2. Visit the developer center with guides, tutorials, and examples at www.genivia.com/dev.html The documentation of the toolkit, libraries, plugins and more is available at www.genivia.com/docs.html Commercial-use licenses and expert technical support services are available at competitive pricing levels, please visit www.genivia.com/products.html

CMake is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test and package software. CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files, and generate native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice. The suite of CMake tools were created by Kitware in response to the need for a powerful, cross-platform build environment for open-source projects such as ITK and VTK. CMake is part of Kitware’s collection of commercially supported open-source platforms for software development and integrates with CDash to provide a comprehensive suite of tools. CDash is the testing server that aggregates, analyzes, and displays the results of software testing processes submitted from clients located around the world.

GCBASIC is an open-source BASIC compiler for 8 bit Microchip PIC, Atmel AVR legacy, AVRDx and LGT microcontrollers. See https://ko-fi.com/post/The-Story-of-GCBASIC-Making-Microcontroller-Progr-D1D319SJ72 for story of GCBASIC. This is a continuous release project. The latest release is always available. This will give you the most complete development toolchain to create and program 8-bit PIC, AVR and LGT microcontrollers. We have added new capabilities that make GCBASIC the easiest tool set available - supporting over 1400 microcontrollers with tools to make this fun and simple. Please see the download section for your options. We have two IDEs, we have just the compiler and we have a minimal install - it is your choice. Please see the homepage here: https://gcbasic.com

PAGE is a drag-and-drop GUI generator for Python and Tkinter which generates Python modules that display a relatively simple GUI constructed from Tk and Ttk widget sets using the Place Geometry Manager. PAGE supports the construction of multiple toplevel GUI's. PAGE is a cross-platform tool running on any OS that has a current version of Python installed. PAGE output requires only Python Tkinter and runs on Linux, Unix, Windows, and even Rasperian. Version 8 is a major release which incorporates initial support of Ttk themes.

Lazarus is a free and open source development tool for the Free Pascal Compiler. The purpose of this project is to serve as a Code Repository, Wiki Knowledgebase and support site for converting existing components and libraries to work with Lazarus and the Free Pascal Compiler.

ProGuard has moved to Github now: https://github.com/Guardsquare/proguard ProGuard is a free Java class file shrinker, optimizer, obfuscator, and preverifier. It detects and removes unused classes, fields, methods, and attributes. It optimizes bytecode and removes unused instructions. It renames the remaining classes, fields, and methods using short meaningless names. ProGuard is useful for making code more compact and more efficient, on the desktop, on tablets, on smartphones, and on embedded devices. It also makes code more difficult to reverse engineer.

Banish crusty code with the Uncrustify C/C++/C#/D/Java/Pawn source code beautifier. It indents, adds newlines, aligns, etc, and is highly configurable.

Command-line/Ant-task/embeddable text file preprocessor. Macros, flow control, expressions. Recursive directory processing. Extensible in Java to display data from any data sources (as database). Can generate complete homepages (tree of HTML-s, images, etc.)

Allows editing of any size file in hexadecimal, decimal and ASCII. A great tool that allows you to edit and analyze the contents for either the data or resource fork of any type of file. 68K, PPC and Carbon run on MacOS 7-9 and X.

cglib has moved to https://github.com/cglib/cglib

Freezed is a Dart code generator for creating immutable data classes, tagged unions, and related model types with minimal boilerplate. It generates constructors, equality, hash codes, toString, and copyWith functionality from concise class declarations. Union types can represent multiple states through separate constructors while retaining exhaustive type-safe handling. JSON serialization integrates with json_serializable, including support for generic argument factories. Project-wide or per-model options can enable or disable generated behaviors such as equality and copying. Freezed works with Dart and Flutter through the standard build_runner workflow. It is especially useful for application state, API models, and strongly typed domain objects.

"Aubit 4GL" is a project to make GPL, OpenSource, Informix-4GL compatible compiler, and continue to extend functionality needed to write most efficient and productive business related, database oriented applications. See "Home Page" link for more.

NClass is a free tool to easily create UML class diagrams with full C# and Java language support.

Both forward-chaining and backward-chaining rules (which may include python code) are compiled into python. Can also automatically assemble python programs out of python functions which are attached to backward-chaining rules. See pyke.sourceforge.ne

LaTeXDraw is a graphical drawing editor for LaTeX. LaTeXDraw can be used to 1) generate PSTricks code; 2) directly create PDF or PS pictures.
