In this paper, we show how to use scope graphs to build static semantic analyzers. We use constraints extracted from the AST to specify facts about binding, typing, and initialization. We treat name and type resolution as separate building blocks, but our approach can handle language constructs—such as record field access—for which binding and typing are mutually dependent.We also refine and extend our previous scope graph theory to address practical concerns including ambiguity checking and support for a wider range of scope relationships. We describe the details of constraint generation for a model language that illustrates many of the interesting static analysis issues associated with modules and records.","language specification; name binding; types; domain specific language; meta-theory","en","report","Delft University of Technology, Software Engineering Research Group","","","","","","","","Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science","Software Technology","","","",""
