OVERVIEW
|
|
|
|
JSC (JavaScript Compiler) is a stand-alone front-end implementation
|
|
of the JS2 language specification. Its purpose is to demonstrate how
|
|
JS2 programs are statically prepared for execution by a JS2 interpreter.
|
|
Its output is assembly code that is assembled by the JS engine.
|
|
|
|
BUILDING JSC
|
|
|
|
Before you start make sure you have a current version of the Java SDK
|
|
installed on your system. If it is correctly installed, you can type
|
|
'javac' at the command-line and see something like:
|
|
|
|
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
|
|
|
|
followed by a bunch of other documentation text.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: I've only tried to build on NT40 using Java2 1.3.0_01. You may
|
|
get different results in different environments.
|
|
|
|
Go to the directory ./build/java, and run your favorite make
|
|
utility, such as:
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
If all goes well, the sanity test will run and you will see something
|
|
like
|
|
|
|
../../test/sanity.js: 0 errors [120 msec]
|
|
|
|
on the last line of the console output. To run more extensive tests,
|
|
use the build command:
|
|
|
|
make test
|
|
|
|
There are also build targets for each of the components (input, lexer,
|
|
parser, semantics, and generator) of the compiler. Thus, a useful idiom
|
|
is to give 'make' two targets, the component you just modified followed
|
|
by the sanity test target like this:
|
|
|
|
make parser sanity
|
|
|
|
To automatically rebuild the parser and run the sanity test. What's
|
|
missing is any kind of dependency rules, so using the root target
|
|
always rebuilds everything. This, for the sake of keeping it simple.
|
|
|
|
|
|
RUNNING JSC
|
|
|
|
From the ./build/java directory, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
java -classpath classes Main program.js
|
|
|
|
where 'program.js' is the name of the file to compile. JSC will
|
|
produce a new file given the name of the original source file
|
|
with the suffix '.jsil' appended to it. Errors are written to a
|
|
file with the suffix '.err' appended to it.

CHANGES

|
|
-----------
|
|
Added first cut at xml icode generation. In particular function definitions,
|
|
call and binary expressions are implemented. Object and array literals are
|
|
also implemented. Many of the tests used for verifying the parser and semantic
|
|
analyzer, are not yet working.

|
-----------
|
|
Removed dependency on sun.tools packages.
|
|
|
|
Dec-1-2000
|
|
----------
|
|
* Original checkin to mozilla.org.
|
|
* Updated readme.
|
|
* NPL copyright notice added to all source files.
|
|
|
|
Nov-30-2000
|
|
-----------
|
|
* Folded definition evaluation into constant evaluation since annotated
|
|
definitions cannot be evaluated until the constant attribute values
|
|
have been computed. Now there is a BlockEvaluator and a ConstantEvaluator.
|
|
* Added an error handler to the constant evaluator.
|
|
* Simplified the type system.
