Simple Compiler

This is a compiler for a simple language. It won't have complex features, but the strict minimum. It generates C code, then compiles it with GCC. You can find examples of the language in the example.sp and fibonacci.sp files.

The compiler uses a LR(1) parser, generated from the grammar in grammar.g2t. The tool used to generate the parse table is Grammar2Table, which you can find here.
With this tool, the command used was g2t grammar.g2t -p5 -c -n.

Build

Use the command build for Windows, or ./build for Linux.

Run

Use the command simple <file> [parameters] for Windows, or ./simple <file> [parameters] for Linux.

Parameters

  • -c: Doesn't compile the file to machine code, but to C language. However, build files are created.
  • -t: Shows the AST.
