1. What is ytljit? Ytljit is a native code generator for compiler. You can generate native code using methods whose name is X86 mnemonic. Why I deverop ytljit instead of using llvm? Because according to my yarv2llvm's experience I think llvm don't have enough power for Ruby compiler. I need rewriting native code and operation to raw stack and refer to CPU flags (carry,zero,negative and so on). 2. Install You can install by gem. Type gem install ytljit If you want install manually, please do the following steps. Install iseq gem before installing ytljit gem install iseq Compile extend library writting in C (ext/*). Copy extend library and main program writting in Ruby (lib/*) to your ruby library directory. 3. License Ruby's 4.
