Primary LanguageC++MIT LicenseMIT

Project VecC

Vector Capable Language

Program Usage

  • program is run from command line in following format

    $ ./vecc-program <options> <files list>

    example :

    $ ./vecc-program --vec -i file1.vecc file2.vecc main.vecc

  • Available parameters are :

    • -h [ --help ]
      Help screen
    • -i [ --input ]
      Input files list
    • --vec
      Incude standard vecc::vec library
    • --fib
      Incude Fibonacci library
    • -v [ --verbosity ] (=0)
      verbosity level :
      • 0 - no information
      • 1 - errors
      • 2 - errors & information about parsed files
      • 3 - errors & files & any created function
      • 4 - errors & files & functions & any parsed token
      • 5+ - full available log

  • run ./demo.sh to see example files parse and output

Build instructions

  • Project uses boost library for testing and parsing program parameters [version 1.72 has been confirmed to work, older might work as well]

  • When calling CMake for the first time, all needed compiler options must be specified on the command line. After this initial call to CMake, the compiler definitions must not be included for further calls to CMake. Other options can be specified on the command line multiple times including all definitions in the build options section below.

  • Example of configuring, building, reconfiguring, rebuilding:

    Initial configuration

    $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ ..
    $ make ...

    Second configuration

    $ make clean $ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
    $ make ...

    Third configuration

    $ rm -rf * $ cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++ ..
    $ make

  • CMake variables

    • CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE = Release|Debug Build type can be Release, Debug which chooses the optimization level and presence of debugging symbols.

    • CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER = <C++ compiler name> Specify the C++ compiler.

  • For full documentation consult the CMake manual or execute

    cmake --help-variable VARIABLE_NAME

  • Project targets :

    • build-all - builds all available targets
    • vecc-doc - available if LaTeX or Doxygen is found on device
    • vecc-test - UnitTest made with boost
    • vecc-check - dummy target for test run during library compilation
    • vecc-library - library containing all classes excluding parameters
    • vecc-program - program available for command line usage
