I didn't check the others.
We should make consider just removing all these ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM
restrictions and just make the description or a +DISPLAY message
clear on what is supported.
cVS: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the beta of the first release of pcc since almost forever. The
main architectures supported are i386 and amd64, other targets may have
less functionality.
Update reviewed by Alistair G. Crooks.
Sorry no change log.
On January 27, ragge bumped the version with commit message:
"Pcc now supports all C99 language constructs (I hope), so wrap to 0.9.9."
This also includes the new manpages. (These are a work in progress --
please send me your improvements.)
For pkgsrc:
- changed download sites
- changed homepage
- INSTALLATION_DIRS not needed.
Instead use the older tarball that does have the version as part of the
name. It has same checksum.
It is really beta but at least the file name exists tomorrow.
We will wait until developer releases a real version.
Sorry about going back in time in versioning in pkgsrc
-- hopefully nobody hit this in the past few minutes.
This fixes PR # 37014
Also take MAINTAINERship.
Update DESCR to not be first person.
Note: man pages not installed as they still need a little cleanup.
latest version of the portable C compiler.
The compiler is based on the original Portable C Compiler by S. C.
Johnson, written in the late 70's. Even though much of the compiler
has been rewritten, some of the basics still remain.
The intention is to write a C99 compiler while still keeping it small,
simple, fast and understandable. I think of it as if it shall be able
to compile and run on PDP11 (even if it may not happen in reality).
But with this in mind it becomes important to think twice about what
algorithms are used.
The compiler is conceptually structured in two parts; pass1 which is
language-dependent, does parsing, typechecking and build trees, and
pass2 which is mostly language-independent.
About 50% of the frontend code and 80% of the backend code has been
rewritten. Most stuff is written by me, with the exception of the
data-flow analysis part and the SSA conversion code which is written
by Peter A Jonsson, and the Mips port that were written as part of a
project by undergraduate students at LTU.
As discussed at great length at EuroBSDcon 2007.
