Hi,
Does any body work on a LLVM backend for Free Pascal?
Has anybody experience with LLVM?
Are there licensing issues?
What about the quality of the produced code?
What about compiling speed?
Thoughts?
Thanks, Martin
The author of ExtPascal created this project: llvm-pascal
http://code.google.com/p/llvm-pascal/
Please...
Have you actually looked at the code ? It doesn't even read/write units.
Besides actual code, it is doomed to fail in principle:
"The purpose of LLVM-Pascal is to have a similar functionality with up to 4000 lines
of code"
A stand-alone, cross-platform, object pascal compiler that produces a working binary
in less than 4000 lines of code ? Get real :)
Some things are by definition not simple.
Michael.
