CCE(be, kno, se)

This working title actually means:
Compiler Construction Experiment of Bernegger, Knoll and Sehorz

Characteristics

Given the ProjectRequirements we took the following decisions for our project.

• input language
  • near to ANSI-C
  • typing:
    • strong
    • basic: int, char, bool (as values)
    • composite: arrays, structs (as references, must be allocated)
  • functions, parameterized local hiding
  • if and while constructs
  • all kinds of nested structures
  • excluded pointers, for, case

• output language / output file format (defined by ourself)
  • code section, sequence of instructions
  • data section, storage of string literals

• virtual machine
  • reduced instruction set
  • implemented in Java
  • 32 general purpose registers
  • 16 file handles
  • non-standard instructions (file and user I/O, memory (de)allocation, save-/load-registers)

Presentation

On Wednesday 29th of June we held a presentation of our project, wherefor we used a set of slides (PDF) and has the following structure:

• Formal Input Language
• Output Language
• Virtual Machine
• Live - Demonstration

Working Results

• Documentation (PDF) containing:
  • Description of formal input language
  • Description of output file format
  • Virtual machine conceptual design
  • Compiler design description
• Sources (ZIP) containing:
  • Compiler and Virtual Machine Source Code
  • Tests
  • Makefiles
