    POWER2C
    MultiChart PowerLanguage to "C" Translator, converter

    The POWER2C® translator that accepts MultiChart PowerLanguage source code and translates them to C. the translator will translate functions or indicators. The translation process is a simple turn key process with minimal user intervention. The translator output is ANSI C or K&R C code that is ready to be tested with the target compiler. Simply run your PowerLanguage source code through the translator and start debugging C code with your target compiler.

    other PowerLanguage translators: POWER2C# , POWER2NINJA

    GENERAL DESCRIPTION

    The POWER2C® family of software translator tools converts existing MultiChart PowerLanguage programs to C. The powerful dual conversion POWER2C® translators accept PowerLanguage programs, check their syntax, analyze the syntax tree and generate C source code. Comments are moved transparently from the source file to the target file. Any built-in functions for math, string manipulation, and I/O in PowerLanguage are converted to calls to external procedure. (Get sample translation) The translator family currently supports the following MultiChart PowerLanguage dialects: For other dialects or custom translation, please contact us for a price quote.

    • TYPE 1 - MultiChart PowerLanguage
    • ORDER: POWER2C type xx ( select one from above)
     

    The POWER2C® translators contain a syntax analyzer, a PowerLanguage to tertiary converter, and a tertiary to C converter. The syntax analyzer scans the PowerLanguage input file for syntactic errors and generates a listing file of the PowerLanguage program. Any syntactic errors will be flagged with detailed English messages in the listing file. If no errors are encountered, then the PowerLanguage input file is converted to tertiary language.

    The transfer of the PowerLanguage source language into an intermediate tertiary language ensures the logical equivalence between the source and target languages. This tertiary language is common to the entire family of our translators. The tertiary language is automatically converted to C while maintaining the logical equivalence between the output C program and the input PowerLanguage program.
