What I want is to compile some source code and I am looking for an "plugable
compiler"
where you can replace the source code parser and reuse the part of the
compiler that generates the bytecode.
Take a look at the java compiler that ships with Eclipse' JDT. It's been split into a separate module

With Java:

[JavaSourceParser] -> [Class file generator]

With language X:

[XSourceParser] -> [Class file generator]

So the parser builds the AST and pass it to the Clas file generator which
generates bytecode from it (no bytecode manipulation but the full bytecode).

2007/5/31, Alex Blewitt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

You should look at ASM if you want to do bytecode manipulation stuff.
You can also interrogate the source models that the JDT compiler spits
out; the documentation is on the Eclipse website for that.

Alex.
