similar to: [LLVMdev] Writing LLVM front-end

Thanks, Reid. When you say the frontend needs to know about how LLVM implements it, do you mean, the Function* type in LLVM, and in which order you add to the arguments array when building this type? Thank you for the video link, just reading the abstract I see this is the way to go. However, as I finished typing the sentence, I wonder if this means clang and/or llvm may be a runtime dependency.

I'm also a beginner, so asking on this beginner thread -- is there anything in addition to the C ABI that one needs to worry about? I imagine a C ABI gives lots of free libraries to integrate into your language, etc. Also the C ABI change on platforms? I thought C Calling convention was the same on all platforms.

The path of least effort, as I previously stated, is to use Boehm-GC. Reference-counted smart pointers will require that you implement the reference counting in your language, in the generated code. e.g. a statement such as: p1 = p2 really compiles into: p1.refcount--; if (!p1.refcount) free(p1) p1 = p2 p1.refcount++ If you want your language to be thread-safe, then the increment and

Hi, I wanted to ask whether there is ongoing effort (or an already established tool) that enables to convert CUDA kernels (that uses CUDA specific intrinsics, e.g., threadId.x, __syncthreads(), ...) to LLVM IR. I am aware that I can do this for OpenCL with the help of libclc but I can not find something similar for CUDA. Thanks -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

Howdy! I've noticed that requests for help by people like me who are developing front ends are often lost in the noise in the llvm-dev list. Although LLVM is a wonderful and very productive framework, I've found that getting help on my front end has been very difficult, and learning necessary detail about the APIs and the like is often very, very challenging. Perhaps it would be good to

Hi All, needed some direction for a newbie to RoR. I have done work in Java, .net and perl, and really prefer perl and java over .net, now we are we are looking to start building a financial trading application, most of the team wants to go with .net while I am trying to build the case with Ruby. Some of our classes have been developed in delphi7. Would I be able to use RoR on the front end of

Hello everybody, I am a beginner in LLVM and need to know how to use LLVM to instrument a C program and execute this instrumented program with different test cases to determine the branch coverage information for each test case. Any suggestion or help is more than welcomed. Thanks in advance. Ahmed Raafat. -- View this message in context:

For my introductory Compiler Construction class, I have been giving the students a project to write a simple compiler for a toy, single- inheritance object-oriented language. We give them a set of classes implementing an AST for the language and a type checker as well. The students write (1) a scanner and parser to build the AST; (2) a translator from AST to LLVM; and (3) a couple of

Hi, I am new in this group, if I want to learn rubyonrails what should I do first. I am very much interested to learn rails as I saw a video and make simple blog following that and then I started feeling that I should learn this language. About me, I have completed the basic java and I understand OOP concept and I can understand and write php codes. If I get some suggestion from you it would

Hi all, As I understand it, storeconfigs needs to be enabled on both the agent and the master to function ideally. I have a couple of questions: -> Can the various agents and the master safely share the same storeconfigs db (say, a postgresql server)? Is there any benefit to setting things up this way? -> Is there any benefit for an _agent_ to use an RDBMS vs sqlite for its

Hello community, I''ve already installed Xen hypervisor over CentOS 6.0. I am wondering where can I obtain some patched guest OS kernels to get start. It seems that under PV mode, guest kernel needs to be modified (correct me if I am wrong). I am a newbie and have no previous experiences on Xen so any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks, -- Su
