Free excelsior java to native compiler software for linux

Scriptol to binary Compiler is a C++ native compiler.

Installation:

It is better to install Scriptol at root of a disk, for example:
c:scriptolc

Once the archive is extracted into the scriptolc directory, you have just to change to this directory to run the compiler.

To use the compiler at command line from any directory, you have to put the compiler into the path variable.

The setup script installs required file into sub-directories, or into the directory given as argument. Before to use the compiler, you have to read the licence, in the doc
directory: licence.html.

Usage:

Just type:
./solc mysource

Type "solc" only to list the options.

If your program is a multi-file project, the source given as parameter must be the main source file, the compiler will know dependencies from "include" statements and will build what is needed.

Exemples:

Type from the main scriptol directory:
./solc -bre demosfibo

Configuring:

By editing the solc.ini file, you may change the second pass compiler (you may have to rebuild the libsol library for this compiler), change the options of the compiler or add header files to include.

To add header files, just add "header=someheader.hpp" lines into the config file.

A xxx.cfg file may be written for each project main source beeing xxx, and if present, it overloads the solc.ini file.

Scriptol to Php Compiler is a scriptol program that may be interpreted by the Php interpreter and it may be also compiled either to C++ or directly as an executable.

The Php interpreter is required by solp (download it at www.php.net or get it on the Scriptol CD).

Installation:

It is better to install Scriptol at root of a disk, for example:
/home/user/scriptolp

Once the archive is extracted into the scriptolp directory, you have just to go to this directory from the console to run the compiler.

To use the compiler at command line from any directory, you have to put the compilers into the path, in the usr directory for exemple, or any directory assigned to the path variable (see .bashrc or equivalent). You may also add the scriptol directory to list of paths. Before to use the compiler, you have to read the licence, in the doc directory: licence.html.

Usage:

Type the source of your program in a text editor and save it as mysource.sol or any other name with the sol extension.

Then just type:

./solp mysource

To know the compilers options, type solp without argument, at command line.

Examples:

Type from the main scriptol directory:
./solp demos/helloyou

Portable Object Compiler project consists of a set of Objective-C class libraries and a precompiler (translator) that generates plain C code.
Main features:
- Easy to install or to modify.
- Works on many systems with the native cc, debugger, profiler etc. (Unix, Windows, Macintosh, Beos, OpenVMS etc. see Platforms.txt file)
- Option for reference counted memory management (-refcnt). This uses the native malloc(), free() etc. but the compiler generates statements for keeping track of references (Tested on a few platforms, such as IRIX 5.2 with the SGI malloc).
- Built-in possibility of tracing Objective C messages. (OBJCRTMSG)
- Straightforward "C" messenger; "inline cache" messenger. Forwarding C messenger (to support -doesNotUnderstand:).
- All classes get a +initialize message at start-up, rather than each class receives a +initialize before it receives its first message.
- Some support for translating Objective-C to Smalltalk (-st80 option)
- Automatic archiver. Compiler generates code for classes to save and load objects to and from disk (for all instance variables of type "id").
- Option for Garbage Collection (using Boehm gc package). Tested on some UNIXes and WIN32. Option for reference counted memory management (doesnt require Boehm).
- Exception handling scheme (using Objective-C Blocks) that allows to specify a default handler to be executed.
- Supports dynamically loading Objective-C modules on Windows, FreeBSD, HP-UX, Linux, IRIX, Digital Unix etc.
- Has a switch for double indirection for Object identifiers (id as a handle instead of a pointer). (-become: method)
- Supports forwarding messages (-doesNotUnderstand: method)
- Support for Embedded SQL in Objective-C (Informix only for now)
- Great system for experimentation with your own additions/extensions to Objective C !

4tH is a Forth compiler with a little difference. Instead of the standard Forth engine it features a conventional compiler.
4tH is a very small compiler that can create bytecode, C-embeddable bytecode, standalone executables, but also works fine as a scripting language. It supports over 85% of the ANS Forth CORE wordset and features conditional compilation, pipes, files, assertions, forward declarations, recursion, include files, etc.
It comes with an RPN calculator, line editor, compiler, decompiler, C-source generators, and a virtual machine.
Enhancements:
- More CORE words and most of the DOUBLE wordset are supported.
- Output buffers can be flushed.
- An experimental multitasking environment was added.

MetaC language extends C in a 100% backward compatible way with reflective features and techniques for refactoring, reconfiguring and modifying arbitrary C source code.
Therefore, the extensions provide special metadata types for working with source code information, syntactical structures for the definiton of code templates, and metafunctions to gather information about source code and refactor, modify, delete, or insert code.
Some of the modifications that can be done with MetaC, are also realizable with the C preprocessor. But the C preprocessor suffers certain limitations that can be overcome using MetaC.
The area of applications for MetaC is not limited to specific domains. But its concepts and its motivation has been derived from problems of CASE tools for embedded real-time systems (e.g. Mathworks Matlab, Telelogics Tau, Aonixs STP).
- Source code reconfiguration and refactoring in general.
- Abstraction of APIs and hardware-specific or vendor-specific implementations of well-defined functionallity (ever got locked to a specfic API by a RTOS vendor?).
- Source code instrumentation for WCET-analysis
- Adaption of source code to multiple embedded targets (especially differing native platform APIs) based upon an abstract machine model
- Application specific debug support (e.g. control-flow or data-flow tracing)
- Verification of domain- and application-specific constraints (e.g. MISRAs rules set for C based programs in automotive applicaitons)
Advantages of the Metaprogramming Approach:
- Source code modification is done based upon syntax. In consequence invalid modifications can be detected at the moment they are executed.
- Decision for code modifications can be made upon user parameters and information derived from the source code
- Crosscutting reconfigurations (i.e. reconfigurations concerning multiple functions or modules) of source code are possible.
Enhancements:
- Support for Win32 hosts was added.
- Support for initializer lists was added.
- Some C99 issues were fixed.
- Several more enhancements were made.
- A whole bunch of bugs were fixed.

Lightweight Java Game Library project is a native binding to OpenGL and OpenAL.
The Lightweight Java Game Library is a native binding for OpenGL and OpenAL written with game developers in mind.
It allows the full OpenGL and OpenAL APIs to be exposed without the penalties associated with competing methods, nor the limitations of APIs such as Java3D.
Tutorials and demos are available, and Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X are supported.
Main features:
- Speed
- Simplicity
- Ubiquity
- Smallness
- Security
- Robustness
- Minimalism
Enhancements:
- Dont allow switching to fullscreen when a custom display mode is in effect. This is a change from before, where the current mode was simply overwritten with the initial (desktop) mode
