In order to write a compiler in an OO style, a language must
provide OO features which are more expressive than those provided
by traditional OO languages like C++.


The Cecil programming language provides very expressive OO
features. Cecil's compiler Vortex is written in Cecil itself. Here
is the Cecil/Vortex home page:

You can write a C++ compiler using OO techniques in C++ by using
Design Patterns. Cecil obviates the need for design patterns.
