Best Answer

A compiler translates anything that is a structured syntax, generally a computer language, into machine code or code that an interpreter will execute on a computer. Machine code actually executes on a machine, interpreted code is pure data for the execution engine of the interpreter.

Post compilers, sometimes called post processors, take the compiled code as input and make changes to the code to provide functionality beyond that of the original language.

Examples are:

  • The original C++ language used a C compiler to process most of the file and a post compiler to add the object-oriented extensions
  • Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) functionality is generally added by a post compiler
