Salto Intermediate Language

The Salto Intermediate Language is a simplified version of the OCaml TypedTree. This library provides function to transform the OCaml TypedTree into the Salto IL, and to transform the Salto IL into the OCaml ParseTree.

The definition of our IL is located in the Ast module.

The functions that translate the Typedtree elements into their conterpart in the IL are located in the Transpose module. These functions produce trees whose nodes contain identifiers that are ensured to be unique. This is not hash-consing: even two sub-trees that happen to be identical by chance will get two distinct identifiers. These unique identifiers enable comparison/equality tests of trees in constant time.

The Term module provides some useful functions, and in particular the computation of free variables (or, more accurately, free paths).
