XLang™

  • A next-generation dynamic and high-performance language for AI and IOT with natural born distributed computing ability
  • A super glue to easily integrating with other languages such as c++/c, python and javascript and any framework cross operation system barriers.
  • Running faster than python about 3x-5x

for AI/Deep learning

  • fully optimized tensor computing architecture
  • easily build neural network with tensor expression
  • automatically generate tensor data flow graph and compile for target
  • boost inference/training performance about 6x-10x in GPU(CUDA)

How to Build

  • build from Windows
  1. git clone https://github.com/xlang-foundation/xlang.git
  2. use Visual Studio to open this xlang folder
  3. choose configuration for example Local Machine/x64-Debug, WSL:Ubuntu/WSL-GCC-Debug
  4. build ( click on Visual Studio's menu: build/build all)
  • build from Linux(Ubuntu)

    Prerequisites

      sudo apt-get install uuid-dev

    for openssl required by http plugin

      sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

    if want to enable xlang™ to call python libs directly

      sudo apt-get install python3-dev
  and also need to pip install numpy
  if not want to enable this feature, 
  just comment out line below in CMakeLists.txt in root folder
  add_subdirectory("PyEng")

    Steps to build

      1. git clone https://github.com/xlang-foundation/xlang.git
  2. cd xlang
  3. mkdir out
  4. cd out
  5. cmake ..
  6. make

How to Run

  • go to console window, cd to xlang executable file folder
  • xlang

How to use vscode to debug on xlang code

  1. install xlang plugin in vscode
  2. start xlang with parameter: -event_loop -dbg -enable_python
    xlang -event_loop -dbg -enable_python
  3. open or new a file with .x extension name
    click on vs code menu run/start debuging then vscode will automatcilly connect with xlang to run

How to build for Android

  1. in Windows, install Android Studio
  2. open project from folder xlang\Android
  3. then build from Android Stduio menu: Build/Make Project
