This is a basic compiler for the Arr Language, version 1.0.0.
To get this repository, simply call:
git clone https://github.com/mcprice30/ArrCompiler.git
You will also need the Microsoft C/C++ optimizing compiler installed and on your path. Finally, you will need the following environment variables set:
- INCLUDE must contain a Visual C++ include directory, such as
C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0/VC/include - LIB must have a Visual C++ library directory, such as
C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0/VC/lib - LIB must also contain a Windows SDK library directory, such as
C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/v7.1A/Lib
To build the Arr compiler, simply run make.
If you wish to build and run the Arr compiler's internal tests, you may do this
by running make tests to build the tests and ./tst to run the test executable. Finally, you may clean the build using make clean.
The Arr compiler is used by calling arr <filename> [flags]. It is recommended
that Arr source files be given the .arr extension. By default, an executable of
matching name will be generated. For example, foo.arr will compile to foo.exe.
The following are flags for the Arr compiler:
- -verbose - Enables verbose printout during compilation.
- -asm - Keep generated assembly (stored in a .cpp file).
- -noexe - Only generate assembly. Do not produce executable.
- -help - See usage and flags.
- -version - See current version. Note that the filename must be provided before any flags.
