Previously, `@section` was a statement inside a top-level chunk, which caused issues when the TLC allocated stack memory (the prologue was generated before the `@section`). This way, Nectar source code is now defined as a list of sections, first and foremost.
N19 Reference Compiler
Made to compile fast and produce acceptable output. Currently only 386 output supported (protected and partially real mode).
Composed of the following passes:
- Lexing
- Parsing & loop_second_pass
- Dumbification
- Codegen
UD-chains are generated during parsing. Codegen uses on primitive patterns within the AST, possible thanks to dumbification. This technique is applicable owing to Nectar's already low-level nature
Installation
make
sudo make install
Command-line usage
ntc arg1=val1 arg2=val2 ... argn=valn
Valid arguments
This will be ported into a man page later:
(TBA) x86_target: Target processor feature set (0 for 8086, 3 for 80386, m for generic x86_64)
(TBA) x86_mode: Target operating mode (16 for 16-bit real mode, 32 for 32-bit protected mode or long mode, 64 for 64-bit long mode)
in: Input Nectar source file
inc: Additional module include path
Unknown arguments are ignored.
Example 1
$ ntc < tests/parsenum.nct > out.asm
$ nasm -f elf -o out.o out.asm
$ ld -dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -m elf_i386 -o parsenum out.o -lc
$ printf "123" | ./parsenum
$ echo $?
123
$ printf "05" | ./parsenum
$ echo $?
5
Example 2
$ ntc < tests/bf.nct > out.asm
$ nasm -f elf -o out.o out.asm
$ ld -dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -m elf_i386 -o bf out.o -lc
$ ./bf < tests/mandelbrot.b
