Abstract
A computer-programming tool for generating an implementation of a first data structure, the first data structure representing at least a portion of a computer-programming language. The implementation includes a second data structure and implementation rules which define the syntax rules of the first data structure to be enforced in relation to nodes of the second data structure during a subsequent processing operation which utilizes the implementation in order to establish compliance with the syntax rules represented by the first data structure. Links between nodes of the first data structure are representative of paths of inheritance of substitutability but not implementation and interface between those nodes.
