(these are diffs from 2.5.8 distribution)
description: A very high quality, very portable compiler for C, C++,
Objective-C. The compiler is designed to support multiple
front-ends and multiple back-ends by translating first
into RTL (Register Transfer Language) and from there into
assembly for the target architecture. Front ends for
Ada, Pascal, and Fortran are all under development.
There is a bounds checking port based on gcc 2.7.1.
Patches for this port are available at:
ftp://dse.doc.ic.ac.uk/pub/misc/bcc
conformance: C: superset of K&R C and ANSI C.
C++: supports most ARM features; exceptions supported
only on some platforms. Supports "bool". Alpha-level
RTTI implementation included. Not yet supported: member
templates, namespaces. Developers are tracking the draft
ANSI/ISO standard and are committee members.
Objective-C: Complies with NeXT proposed (ANSI?) standard.

description: This package provides a translation from SUIF to Fortran77.
Since not all of SUIF can translate to Fortran 77, program is
broken up into parts that go to Fortran 77, and the rest goes
to C which is then linked to the Fortran parts. This provides
improved performance over generating C alone in many cases
because the Fortran 77 back-end compiler can often optimize
better than a C compiler.

description: ae (the "application executive") is a C interpreter library
which is compiled with an application; hence, the interpreter
exists in the same process and address space. it includes a
dbx symbol table scanner to access compiled vars & routines, or
you can enter them manually by providing a type/name
declaration and the address. when the interpreter is invoked,
source code fragments are read from the input stream (or a
string), parsed, and evaluated immediately. The user can call
compiled functions in addition to a few built-in intrinsics,
declare new data types and data objects, etc. Different input
streams can be evaluated in parallel on alliant machines.
Version 2 differs substantially in that the code
fragments are read into an intermediate form before being
evaluated, and can be stored in this form and then called
from either user code or the interpreter. Version 2 also
handles looping constructs (and the full C language),
unlike version 1.

Project Status: Chop compiles and runs a number of small test
programs on the Vax. I'm currently updating the NS32k and 68K
retargets for lcc compatibility. After I get them working,
I'll work on getting the system to compile itself, get struct
assignments working, improve the code quality and compile
speed, and run the SPEC benchmarks. That will be rev 1.0.

However, in our experience, it is typically more successful at
reclaiming unused memory than most C programs using explicit
deallocation. Unlike manually introduced leaks, the amount of
unreclaimed memory typically stays bounded.

one of Undefined, Uninitialized, Free or Set. The program can
detect invalid transitions (i.e. attempting to set or use
undefined or free storage or attempting to access uninitialized
storage). In addition, the program keeps track of heap
management through malloc and free and at the end of the run
will report all memory blocks that were not freed and that are
not accessible (i.e. memory leaks).
The tools works using a spliced-in shared library.

description: GNU E is a persistent, object oriented programming language
developed as part of the Exodus project. GNU E extends C++
with the notion of persistent data, program level data objects
that can be transparently used across multiple executions of a
program, or multiple programs, without explicit input and
output operations.
GNU E's form of persistence is based on extensions to the C++
type system to distinguish potentially persistent data objects
from objects that are always memory resident. An object is
made persistent either by its declaration (via a new
"persistent" storage class qualifier) or by its method of
allocation (via persistent dynamic allocation using a special
overloading of the new operator). The underlying object
storage system is the Exodus storage manager, which provides
concurrency control and recovery in addition to storage for
persistent data.

language, which is the most popular implementation of Small-C
to-date. The 6502 Small-C compiler for the BBC Micro is based
on "RatC", a version of the original Ron Cain compiler
described by R.E.Berry and B.A.Meekings in "A Book on C", ISBN
0-333-36821-5 (1984). The 6502 compiler is written in Small-C
and was bootstrapped using Zorland C on an Amstrad PC1512 under
MSDOS 3.2, then transferred onto a BBC Micro using Kermit. The
compiler can be used to cross-compile 6502 code from an MSDOS
host, or as a 'resident' Small-C compiler on a BBC Micro.

description: MeldC 2.0: A Reflective Object-Oriented Coordination
Programming Language MELDC is a C-based, concurrent,
object-oriented language built on a reflective architecture.
The core of the architecture is a micro-kernel (the MELDC
kernel), which encapsulates a minimum set of entities that
cannot be modeled as objects. All components outside of the
kernel are implemented as objects in MELDC itself and are
modularized in the MELDC libraries. MELDC is reflective in
three dimensions: structural, computational and architectural.
The structural reflection indicates that classes and
meta-classes are objects, which are written in MELDC. The
computational reflection means that object behaviors can be
computed and extended at runtime. The architectural reflection
indicates that new features/properties (e.g., persistency and
remoteness) can be constructed in MELDC.

description: Ada 9X student starter compiler/interpreter.
AVLAda9X is a prototype Ada 9X student compiler/interpreter.
Its goal is to provide a small Ada 9x compiler/translator
that is easy to install and has good performance for
compilation and interpretation.
conformance: Grammar conforms to Ada 9X version 5.0
(DIS 8652-9X, June 1994);
reference: RM9X;5.0
(ftp://ajpo.sei.cmu.edu/public/ada9x/rm9x/v5.0/rm9x.doc)
features: The version being released allows separate compilation of
package specs and bodies. The tasking model is working with
simple tasking constructs including the use of protected
units and tasks with discriminants as shown within the
enclosed example programs.
bugs: Some problems with generics.
Future work will focus on OOP and generics.
It is expected that the completed work will allow the use of
most of the Ada 9X constructs.

author: International Computer Science Institute in Berkeley, CA
location: ftp://ftp.icsi.berkeley.edu/pub/sather/Sather-1.0.6.tar.gz
description: Sather is an object oriented language which aims to be simple,
efficient, safe, and non-proprietary. One way of placing it in
the "space of languages" is to say that it aims to be as
efficient as C, C++, or Fortran, as elegant and safe as Eiffel
or CLU, and support higher-order functions and iteration
abstraction as well as Common Lisp, Scheme, or Smalltalk.
Sather has parameterized classes, object-oriented dispatch,
statically-checked strong (contravariant) typing, separate
implementation and type inheritance, multiple inheritance,
garbage collection, iteration abstraction, higher-order
routines and iters, exception handling, assertions,
preconditions, postconditions, and class invariants. Sather
programs can be compiled into portable C code and can
efficiently link with C object files. Sather has a very
unrestrictive license which allows its use in proprietary
projects but encourages contribution to the public library.

language: XPL (PL/I dialect)
package: XPL optimizing Compiler
version: 1
parts: compiler, documentation
author: Robin Vowels <[email protected]>
location: mail to author
description: The compiler is a standard implementation of XPL and is based
on McKeeman, Horning, and Wortman's improved XCOM (which
employs hashed symbol table generation). It includes the extra
built-in function COREHALFWORD.
The following areas have been optimized: procedures calls when
the argument and corresponding parameter are of the same type,
and when the argument is a constant; constant subscripts; use
of CORELHALFWORD and COREWORD; string constants of length one;
iterative DO statements by transferring code to the end of the
loop.
String constants of length one do not require a descriptor,
hence more descriptors are available for string variables.
Comparison operations are treated as commutative, and an
improved Commute algorithm is used. Halfword instructions are
generated for BIT(16) variables.
These areas have been improved or re-written: calls on OUTPUT,
catenation, integer-to-string conversion, multiply, divide, and
MOD. An emitter for SS-type instructions has been added.
The compiler achieves an 11% reduction in object code
compiling itself, an 11% increase in compilation rate, a 55%
increase in compilation speed when the $E toggle is set.
Special treatment for catenating a string to an integer
substantially decreases consumption of the free string area,
and decreases string moves. The latter improvement is most
noticeable on small core machines.
Core requirements: less than the improved XCOM on which it is
based (approx. 98000 bytes). Symbol table size is 468.
ports: IBM System 370
portability: The compiler is written in XPL. The code generators are
machine-specific.

author: ITHACA project
location: ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/pub/unix/languages/cool/cool-*.tar.Z
description: The CooL-SPE is a programming environment specially designed to
support the professional development of large-scale
object-oriented application systems.
CooL offers all the basic features of the object-oriented
paradigm, such as (single) inheritance, dynamic binding and
polymorphism. Above that, CooL offers generic object types and
abstract object types and last but not least supports modules
in the tradition of Modula, thus allowing to really build large
systems. CooL is fully type-compliant with the C language type
system and allows software written in C or in languages with a
C interface to be integrated into CooL applications without any
effort.
CooL-SPE supports the development of application systems with
graphical user interfaces based on X/Motif. These interfaces
may be constructed using UIL or interactivly using a dialog
editor. A dialog object class library, DIO, is available to
facilitate integration of the application with the runtime
system of X/Motif. This interface abstracts from the toolkit's
primitives.
The CooL language is extended by the CooL library system
CoLibri. CoLibri offers a BCD type and a number of functions
for the CooL simple types (e.g. STRING). As foundation object
types, provides basic file I/O, time representation (including
date, time, duration, interval etc.), and the basic container
object types (e.g. set, list, sortedList, map and dictionary)
as generic types.
The SQL Object Interface (SOI) is provided to allow
object-oriented applications to be integrated with a relational
database system. This interface offers access to SQL tables via
a generated object type interface.

compiler it produces programs that are typically between
10 to 20 times faster than Sun's 1.0.2 JVM.

Self. Release 2.0 introduces full source-level debugging of
optimized code, adaptive optimization to shorten compile
pauses, lightweight threads within Self, support for
dynamically linking foreign functions, changing programs within
Self, and the ability to run the experimental Self graphical
browser under OpenWindows.
Designed for expressive power and malleability, Self combines a
pure, prototype-based object model with uniform access to state
and behavior. Unlike other languages, Self allows objects to
inherit state and to change their patterns of inheritance
dynamically. Self's customizing compiler can generate very
efficient code compared to other dynamically-typed
object-oriented languages.

features: The language promotes usability, as opposed to reusability.
To this extent:
+ classes are extensible entities: a class is fully defined
by its main definition and any extensions defined for it,
+ an extension can add and replace methods. In support of
complex added behaviour, an extension can add instance
variables. To promote object reusability, an extension can
introduce additional superclasses,
+ extensions can be added to a program at compile, link, or
run time.
