*Description*

The tool =pack-koala= packs the Koala component and interface definitions and produces a parse tree for the complete Koala specification.


*Example*

%ATTACHURL%/pack-koala.gif

Suppose that we want to obtain the complete parse tree of a Koala composition specified in =koala-tools-bundle=:
<verbatim>
	component koala-tools-bundle {
		contains
			component ASFIX-TOOLS asfix-tools;
			component ATerm aterm;
			component GPP gpp;
			component GRAPH-TOOLS graph-tools;
			component mySGLR sglr;
			component Stratego stratego;
			component KOALA-TOOLS koala-tools;
	}
</verbatim>


If all component, interface, and data type definitions are stored in =./koala-pb=. Then the following command will yield the desired parse tree:
<verbatim>
	pack-koala -I ./koala-pb -i koala-tools-bundle
</verbatim>



This parse tree can be further transformed with =asfix-yield= to obtain a textual representation of the composition:
<verbatim>
	pack-koala -I ./koala-pb -i koala-tools-bundle \
	| asfix-yield
</verbatim>

or imploded into an abstract syntax tree with =implode-asfix=:
<verbatim>
	pack-koala -I ./koala-pb -i koala-tools-bundle \
	| implode-asfix
</verbatim>
