How to use EEP mode

  1. Compile the compiler (instructions assume macOS with clang & CMake installed)
mkdir build
cd build

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug .. && cmake --build .
cd ..
  1. The compiler binary will now be build/jcc
  2. Run the compiler with -Teep flag on your file, e.g ./LOCATION_OF_JCC/build/jcc -Teep -Lasm mul.c - the -Lasm flag will print out the EEP assembly as well
  3. It will output a file next to it suffixed by .obj which will be your EEP assembly
  4. Rename this from .c.obj to .ram and then you can import it into Issie

jcc

JCC is designed to be a pure C11 (no dependencies) C11 compiler.

Is it sound?

No, it is text based

Design

The current design consists of 3 stages:

  • Frontend - Parser + Lexer
    • These work in lockstep (tokens are provided on-demand by the lexer), and build the AST
    • Lexing code is lex.h and lex.c
    • Parsing code is parse.h and parse.c
  • Intermediate Representations and passes
    • All code located in the ir folder
    • IR representation structs and helper methods are in ir/ir.h and ir/ir.c
    • Pretty-printing functionality is in ir/prettyprint.h and ir/prettyprint.c
      • This also includes graph-building functionality with graphviz
    • IR building
    • Lowering
      • This converts the IR into the platform-native form
      • Currently only AArch64 is supported
      • The code for lowering is in the aarch64 folder
        • aarch64/lower.c contains the code that actually lowers the IR to assembly
  • Code Generation & Linking
    • Emitting
      • Currently only AArch64 is supported
      • The code for emitting AArch64 is in the aarch64 folder
        • aarch64/isa.h contains macros used for creating AArch64 instructions
        • aarch64/emitter.c contains the aarch64_emitter type used to actually emit these into memory
    • Object file building
    • Linking
      • Links using the platform linker
      • Effectively just runs the linker as one would from the command line
      • Code is link.h and link.c
