A work in progress C compiler from scratch

• ocean

  9 167 0.0 C

  Programming language that compiles into a x86 ELF executable.

Can't edit my original reply anymore, but fair point, I've changed the keyword 'function' in the AST to a function return type instead. There's no error handling done yet to check whether the variable receiving the function return data matches the function return type, but it's on my todo list.

Then again in C it would work aswell if you type casted the types.

  const char *f()

  The Fast Lexical Analyzer - scanner generator for lexing in C and C++ (by westes)

I wrote a C compiler using flex [1] and bison [2]. The glue between them is a bit hacky.

At some point ANTLR [3] looked promising, but these days I'd probably write a lexer and recursive descent parser by hand, then generate LLVM IR.
