Summary:This article is devoted to KAST language extensions introduced for purposes of sources code transformation. Currently KAST is used for matching syntactic patterns in syntactic trees built of C/C++, Java or C# sources. Several existing approaches to code transformation are also considered and KAST advantages over those approaches are highlighted. A method for converting modifications of syntactic trees into modifications of source code is also described.
