  • The Lcc 4.X Code-Generation Interface
    The lcc 4.x Code-Generation Interface Christopher W. Fraser and David R. Hanson Microsoft Research [email protected] [email protected] July 2001 Technical Report MSR-TR-2001-64 Abstract Lcc is a widely used compiler for Standard C described in A Retargetable C Compiler: Design and Implementation. This report details the lcc 4.x code- generation interface, which defines the interaction between the target- independent front end and the target-dependent back ends. This interface differs from the interface described in Chap. 5 of A Retargetable C Com- piler. Additional infomation about lcc is available at http://www.cs.princ- eton.edu/software/lcc/. Microsoft Research Microsoft Corporation One Microsoft Way Redmond, WA 98052 http://www.research.microsoft.com/ The lcc 4.x Code-Generation Interface 1. Introduction Lcc is a widely used compiler for Standard C described in A Retargetable C Compiler [1]. Version 4.x is the current release of lcc, and it uses a different code-generation interface than the inter- face described in Chap. 5 of Reference 1. This report details the 4.x interface. Lcc distributions are available at http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/lcc/ along with installation instruc- tions [2]. The code generation interface specifies the interaction between lcc’s target-independent front end and target-dependent back ends. The interface consists of a few shared data structures, a 33-operator language, which encodes the executable code from a source program in directed acyclic graphs, or dags, and 18 functions, that manipulate or modify dags and other shared data structures. On most targets, implementations of many of these functions are very simple.

  • Intro to C Programming 1
    Introduction to C via Examples Last update: Cristinel Ababei, January 2012 1. Objective The objective of this material is to introduce you to several programs in C and discuss how to compile, link, and execute on Windows or Linux. The first example is the simplest hello world example. The second example is designed to expose you to as many C concepts as possible within the simplest program. It assumes no prior knowledge of C. However, you must allocate significant time to read suggested materials, but especially work on as many examples as possible. 2. Working on Windows: Example 1 To get started with learning C, I recommend using a simple and general/generic IDE with a freeC/C++ compiler. For example, Dev-C++ is a nice compiler system for windows. Download and install it on your own computer from here: http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html In my case, I installed it in M:\Dev-Cpp, where I created a new directory M:\Dev-Cpp\cristinel to store all projects I will work on. Inside this new directory, I created yet one more M:\Dev- Cpp\cristinel\project1, where I’ll store the files for the first program, which is simply the famous “hello world” program. We’ll create a new project directory for each new program; this way we keep thing nicely organized in individual directories. We create a program by creating a new project in Dev-C++. So, start Dev-C++ and create a new project. In the dialog window, select “Console Application” as the type of project and name it hello.
