# pEpACIDLang

"The current problem at hand is to replace a handwritten C API with a pEpACIDlang generated one."   

pEpACIDLang stands for "pEp Abstract C Interface Description Language".

pEpACIDLang is language to describe a programming interface.
'Abstract', because the interfaces defined in pEpACIDLang are agnostic to the target language.   
'C' because the syntax and some concepts are based on the C language.

A concrete interface and client code using the interface can be generated 
for any language where there exist a language mapping for.   

A language mapping consists of:
* A language mapping specification (lms)
* An interface generator (ig)
