Overview

This module contains the implementation of the Cecilia ADL toolchain. The Cecilia ADL toolchain is an ADL compiler that allows the programmers to describe the architecture of the application to be built using the Cecilia ADL language. Based on these ADL descriptions and the component implementations that are written respecting some conventions, the Cecilia ADL Toolchain generates all the glue code that is needed to assemble the application respecting the specified architecture, and compiles it using a standard C compiler.

The Cecilia ADL toolchain is an extensible tool. In particular, it can be extended for supporting different front-end languages (as ADL, IDL, implementation programming conventions, etc.), and for generating different binding implementations (IPC, RPC, etc.) for connecting the components of an application.
