I don't think that there exists a pretty printer that can serialize any ast node. Some pretty printers are indeed provided in pretty_print_c.ml. I think Arie has changed the way that Coccinelle libraries are made available to ocaml, so it would probably be easier if he could add it. It does seem reasonable to have it available, although if the user tries to do anything complicated, he will likely be disappointed... julia _______________________________________________ Cocci mailing list [email protected] http://lists.diku.dk/mailman/listinfo/cocci (Web access from inside DIKUs LAN only)
