What (who) is syntax directed translation - definition

Syntax-Directed Definition; Syntax-Directed Translation Scheme; Translation Scheme

syntax directed translation      
A technique where the structure of a language processor (e.g. a compiler) is based on the structure of the language's abstract syntax. There might be one procedure in the translator corresponding to each category in the abstract syntax. That procedure is responsible for processing constructs of that category. Each procedure would call others corresponding to the construct's subconstituents and then combine their results to give the overall result for that construct.
Syntax-directed translation         
Syntax-directed translation refers to a method of compiler implementation where the source language translation is completely driven by the parser.

Syntax-directed translation

Syntax-directed translation refers to a method of compiler implementation where the source language translation is completely driven by the parser.

A common method of syntax-directed translation is translating a string into a sequence of actions by attaching one such action to each rule of a grammar. Thus, parsing a string of the grammar produces a sequence of rule applications. SDT provides a simple way to attach semantics to any such syntax.
