  • Meson Manual Sample.Pdf
    Chapter 2 How compilation works Compiling source code into executables looks fairly simple on the surface but gets more and more complicated the lower down the stack you go. It is a testament to the design and hard work of toolchain developers that most developers don’t need to worry about those issues during day to day coding. There are (at least) two reasons for learning how the system works behind the scenes. The first one is that learning new things is fun and interesting an sich. The second one is that having a grasp of the underlying system and its mechanics makes it easier to debug the issues that inevitably crop up as your projects get larger and more complex. This chapter aims outline how the compilation process works starting from a single source file and ending with running the resulting executable. The information in this chapter is not necessary to be able to use Meson. Beginners may skip it if they so choose, but they are advised to come back and read it once they have more experience with the software build process. The treatise in this book is written from the perspective of a build system. Details of the process that are not relevant for this use have been simplified or omitted. Entire books could (and have been) written about subcomponents of the build process. Readers interested in going deeper are advised to look up more detailed reference works such as chapters 41 and 42 of [10]. 2.1 Basic term definitions compile time All operations that are done before the final executable or library is generated are said to happen during compile time.

I would have never thought of that!" - Jon Shiring (Call of Duty 4 / MW2) lunedì 17 marzo 14 What is a compiler ? • A compiler is a computer program (or set of programs) that translate source code from a high-level programming language to a lower level language (e.g., assembly language or machine code). • A compiler typically performs: lexical analysis (tokenization), preprocessing, parsing, semantic analysis, code generation, and code optimization. lunedì 17 marzo 14 From source code to a running program text editor Source file compiler Object file Libraries linker Running program loader Executable lunedì 17 marzo 14 From source to object file • Lexical analysis: breaks the source code text into small pieces source file Lexical analyzer called tokens. Each token is a single atomic unit of the language, for instance a keyword, identifier or symbol name. • Preprocessing: in C/C++ macro substitution and conditional Preprocessor Analysis compilation • Syntax analysis: token sequences are parsed to identify the Syntax analyzer syntactic structure of the program. • Semantic analysis: semantic checks such as type checking (checking for type errors), or object binding (associating Semantic analyzer variable and function references with their definitions), or definite assignment (requiring all local variables to be initialized before use), rejecting incorrect programs or issuing warnings • Code generation: translation into the output language, usually Code generator Synthesis the native machine language of the system.
