Xcode is a suite of tools, developed by Apple, for developing software for Mac OS X and iOS. 2. The Xcode suite includes a modified version of free software GNU Compiler Collection (GCC, apple-darwin9- gcc-4.2.1 as well as apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1, with the former being the default), and supports C, C++, Objective- C, Objective-C++, Java, AppleScript, Python and Ruby source code with a variety of programming models, including but not limited to Cocoa, Carbon, and Java. Third parties have added support for GNU Pascal, Free Pascal, Ada, C#, Perl, Haskell, and D. The Xcode suite uses the GNU Debugger as the back-end for its debugger.

  • The Design of a Pascal Compiler Mohamed Sharaf, Devaun Mcfarland, Aspen Olmsted Part I
    The Design of A Pascal Compiler Mohamed Sharaf, Devaun McFarland, Aspen Olmsted Part I Mohamed Sharaf Introduction The Compiler is for the programming language PASCAL. The design decisions Concern the layout of program and data, syntax analyzer. The compiler is written in its own language. The compiler is intended for the CDC 6000 computer family. CDC 6000 is a family of mainframe computer manufactured by Control Data Corporation in the 1960s. It consisted of CDC 6400, CDC 6500, CDC 6600 and CDC 6700 computers, which all were extremely rapid and efficient for their time. It had a distributed architecture and was a reduced instruction set (RISC) machine many years before such a term was invented. Pascal Language Imperative Computer Programming Language, developed in 1971 by Niklaus Wirth. The primary unit in Pascal is the procedure. Each procedure is represented by a data segment and the program/code segment. The two segments are disjoint. Compiling Programs: Basic View Machine Pascal languag program Pascal e compile program filename . inpu r gp output a.out p t c Representation of Data Compute all the addresses at compile time to optimize certain index calculation. Entire variables always are assigned at least one full PSU “Physical Storage Unit” i.e CDC6000 has ‘wordlength’ of 60 bits. Scalar types Array types the first term is computed by the compiler w=a+(i-l)*s Record types: reside only within one PSU if it is represented as packed. If it is not packed its size will be the size of the largest possible variant. Data types … Powerset types The set operations of PASCAL are realized by the conventional bit-parallel logical instructions ‘and ‘ for intersection, ‘or’ for union File types The data transfer between the main store buffer and the secondary store is performed by a Peripheral Processor (PP).

  • Programming Language Feature Agglomeration
    Programming Language Feature Agglomeration Jeremy Singer Callum Cameron Marc Alexander University of Glasgow fi[email protected] Abstract feels that ‘a language designer has no business of trying to force Feature-creep is a well-known phenomenon in software systems. programmers to use a particular style’. In this paper, we argue that feature-creep also occurs in the domain In view of this constraint, new languages are likely to be rel- of programming languages. Recent languages are more expressive atively large and unwieldy. The new language tends to have new than earlier languages. However recent languages generally extend features, otherwise there is no compelling reason for it. However rather than replace the syntax (sometimes) and semantics (almost the new language generally also supports features of existing lan- always) of earlier languages. We demonstrate this trend of agglom- guages, otherwise no-one will use it. In this paper, we provide some eration in a sequence of languages comprising Pascal, C, Java, and empirical evidence to support our argument that modern languages Scala. These are all block-structured Algol-derived languages, with (Java, Scala) are significantly larger than older languages (Pascal, earlier languages providing explicit inspiration for later ones.

The evi- dence suggests that there is a trend of increasing complexity in In this work, we make the following contributions: modern languages that have evolved from earlier languages. 1.

Platforms Pascal is available for: OpenVMS VAX OpenVMS Alpha Tru64 Unix Windows 95/98/ME Windows NT Linux FreeBSD Unix OS/2 Macintosh See Table V in the Compilers section for a list of available compilers.

Turbo Pascal and THINK Pascal have not been updated for quite some time; likewise, CodeWarrior Pascal's final update is in progress at the time of this writing. Delphi and Compaq Pascal are both still commercially viable products, with yearly updates and full vendor support. Finally, FreePascal and GNU Pascal are ongoing open source projects, providing versions of Pascal freely available to the public.
