Free lab manual on compiler design software for linux

Free Pascal (aka FPK Pascal) is a 32 or 64 bit (from 1.9.6) pascal compiler. Free Pascal Compiler is available for different processors Intel x86, Amd64/x86 64 (from 1.9.6), PowerPC (from 1.9.2), Sparc (from 1.9.6) and Motorola 680x0 (1.0.x only).
The following operating systems are supported Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, MacOSX/Darwin, MacOS classic, DOS, Win32, OS/2, BeOS, SunOS (Solaris), QNX and Classic Amiga.
Main features:
- Very clean language Pascal is a very nice language, your programs will be more readable and maintainable than for example in C, and lets even forget about C++. And you dont need to give up the power, the Pascal language is as powerful as you want it.
- No Makefiles Unlike most programming languages, Pascal does not need Makefiles. You can save huge amounts of time, the compiler just figures out itself which files need to be recompiled.
- Pascal compilers are Fast with a big F and Free Pascal is no exception. Yes, you no longer need to grow roots while compiling your programs, just hit the compile key and its done, even for large programs.
- Each unit has its own identifiers In Pascal you never need to worry about polluting the namespace, like in C where an identifier needs to be unique accross the entire program. No, in Pascal each unit gets its own namespace and thats very relaxed.
- Integrated development environment Free Pascal comes with an IDE which work on several platforms, in which you can write, compile and debug your programs. You will save huge amounts of time using the IDE, the best programming friend you have.
- Great integration with assembler Do you think pascal is for wimps who need to learn programming? WRONG! Its excellent for high tech programming and for the supreme nerds among you we have the integrated assemblers. You can easily mix assembler code and Pascal code, in the language you wish? Prefer Intel styled assembler? No problem, if its needed Free Pascal will convert it to ATT for you. Do you want to convert your program into a source file for Nasm? No problem, and all ATT assembler in your source files is automatically converted.
- Object oriented programming And if you do the serious programming, you are of course very interested in object oriented programming. Use the Turbo Pascal and Object Pascal ways of OOP according to your taste. The FCL and Free Vision and provide you with the powerful object libraries you need. For your database needs we support PostgreSQL, MySQL, Interbase and ODBC.
- Smartlinking Free Pascals smart linker leaves out any variable or code that you do not use. That makes small programs small with a big S, while they are still statically linked, avoiding DLL hell!
- Distribution independence (Linux) As a result of this, software compiled by the Linux version of Free Pascal runs on any Linux distribution, making it much, much, easier to make your software support multiple Linux distributions.
- Available for a lot of platforms on several architectures Free Pascal is available for more platforms than most other Pascal compilers and allows easy cross-compiling, just change the target in the IDE and compile! And there is work going on for even more platforms and processors.
- Compatible Have existing code? Free Pascal is more compatible with it than any other Pascal compiler. We are almost completely compatible with Turbo Pascal and quite well compatible with Delphi source code. If you have code in another language, like C or assembler, just use favorite compiler for it and call it from Free Pascal.
Version restrictions:
- For the intel 80x86 version at least a 386 processor is required, but a 486 is recommended. For the motorola 680x0 version, a 68020 or later processor is recommended. In all cases, a minimum of 8 Megabytes of RAM is recommended, but the compiler is reported to work with 4 Megabytes of RAM.

The Java Brainfuck Compiler is a compiler for the uniquely powerful Brainfuck language, which produces Java bytecode that will run on any Java Virtual Machine (with no intermediate steps such as going by way of Java code).

Intel C++ Compiler application is a full fledged C/C++ compiler and debugger suite. Its aim is to provide outstanding performance for all Intel 32-bit and 64-bit processors, while not requiring the need for porting applications from other compilers.

It provides optimization technology, threaded application support, and features to take advantage of Hyper-Threading technology. It is substantially source and object code compatible with GNU C, providing fullest compatibility with GCC and G++ 3.x/4.x both in terms of code and of API. It is thereby also easy to integrate with existing development environments.

The Modular Manual Browser is a set scripts designed as a man/apropos work-alike. It indexes manual pages across different operating systems and displays them in a searchable database in a Web browser.
It is easy to set up and includes highlighting, linking support in man pages, browsing and searching of pages, categories, and manuals.
It can also optionally set up a database containing descriptions of pages from the page titles.
Enhancements:
- BUGS, COPYING, INSTALL, INSTALL.roff, Makefile, README, README.roff, TODO.sh, config.php, index.php, mandb.php, modfunc.php, modman.php, api/files.php, api/modfunc.php, api/pages.php, api/whatis.php, install/BUGS, install/COPYING, install/INSTALL, install/INSTALL.roff, install/Makefile, install/README, install/README.roff, install/TODO.sh, tmp/.local: api split up, install data moved, so that modman may be dropped directly into webspace. mandb.php can pick up multi-line descriptions now.
Apropos results can be filtered by Section or Manual, but not Page (obviously).
whatis pseudo-database implemented, enabled by default in config.
Sections include Subsections (3->3ucb, 3ucb->3ucblib). Local Apropos and description support added via apropos/whatis programs.
- Release 1.2 -- The Small-Box/WhatIS Release.

Tiny C compiles so fast that even for big projects Makefiles may not be necessary.
TinyCC (aka TCC) is a small but hyper fast C compiler. Unlike other C compilers, it is meant to be self-relying: you do not need an external assembler or linker because TCC does that for you.
TCC not only supports ANSI C, but also most of the new ISO C99 standard and many GNUC extensions including inline assembly.
TCC can also be used to make C scripts, i.e. pieces of C source that you run as a Perl or Python script. Compilation is so fast that your script will be as fast as if it was an executable. TCC can also automatically generate memory and bound checks while allowing all C pointers operations. TCC can do these checks even if non patched libraries are used.
With libtcc, you can use TCC as a backend for dynamic code generation
TCC mainly supports the i386 target on Linux and Windows. There are alpha ports for the ARM (arm-tcc) and the TMS320C67xx targets (c67-tcc).
Main features:
- SMALL! You can compile and execute C code everywhere, for example on rescue disks (about 100KB for x86 TCC executable, including C preprocessor, C compiler, assembler and linker).
- FAST! tcc generates optimized x86 code. No byte code overhead. Compile, assemble and link several times faster than GCC.
- UNLIMITED! Any C dynamic library can be used directly. TCC is heading torward full ISOC99 compliance. TCC can of course compile itself.
- SAFE! tcc includes an optional memory and bound checker. Bound checked code can be mixed freely with standard code.
- Compile and execute C source directly. No linking or assembly necessary. Full C preprocessor and GNU-like assembler included.
- C script supported : just add #!/usr/local/bin/tcc -run at the first line of your C source, and execute it directly from the command line.
- With libtcc, you can use TCC as a backend for dynamic code generation.
Enhancements:
- initial PE executable format for windows version (grischka)
- #pragma pack support (grischka)
- #include_next support (Bernhard Fischer)
- ignore -pipe option
- added -f[no-]leading-underscore
- preprocessor function macro parsing fix (grischka)

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
