Code-Generation for SwiftSyntax

This directory contains file to generate source code that is part of the SwiftSyntax package. If you are looking to generate Swift code yourself, you might be interested in SwiftSyntaxBuilder.

Some source code inside SwiftSyntax is generated using SwiftSyntaxBuilder, a Swift library whose purpose is to generate Swift code using Swift itself. This kind of code generation is performed by the Swift package defined in this directory.

To re-generate the files after changing CodeGeneration run the generate-swift-syntax target of CodeGeneration and pass path/to/swift-syntax/Sources as the argument.

On the command line, this would be

swift run --package-path CodeGeneration generate-swift-syntax Sources

Or if you open the CodeGeneration package in Xcode, you can add the generate-swift syntax ../Sources arguments using Product -> Scheme -> Edit Scheme…
