What is Emitter?
It is the mechanism that converts processed data or code into an output format that another system or tool can use.
Overview
The emitter is usually involved in the final stage of a parser or compiler. After the parser analyzes and understands the data, the emitter writes this information to a language or file that the target platform understands. This could be in the form of converting to machine code or generating a JSON output that an API will accept.
How it works
It takes the abstract data structure inside and exports it according to predefined templates or rules. The output can be a file, a network packet, or directly the input of another function.
Where it is used
It occurs frequently in compilers, data conversion tools, and event-driven systems.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Emitter and Parser?
