See the process which you are mentioning is referred as high level
translation.


In this the input to the translator is one high level language and the
output of translator is


Another high level language.






Now the process followed to do this is that initially the source high
level language is scanned and parsed


and an AST structure is obtained as the output.






Now we traverse this AST (a tree like structure) and while doing so
generate the target high level language.


By above I mean that we associate some semantic rules with the AST that
generate the target high level language.


Above method is based on "Tree parsing approach".






Now there are various tools available for doing this (tree parsing) like
ANTLR, RUN-cc SABLE cc etc....










Thanks and Best regards
