/prog/ - Now what

Name: L 2008-04-09 7:20

So i have written a compiler for a cool language, let's call it P6, and the compiler itself is written in P6.

What do I do now?

Name: Anonymous 2008-04-09 7:29

Compile it.

Compile it by hand like a real man.

Write a P6 interpreter in P6, then run the P6 compiler in the interpreter to compile itself.
Done.

But what would interpreter/compile the interpreter?

You run the interpreter in itself, moron

What good is writing an interpreter in P6 if he can't compile the interpreter?

Serious answer:
You will have to write a P6 compiler in another language (say, C + flex + bison) to compile your P6 compiler. It doesn't have to implement the entire language or do any optimization, just the functionality you used when writing the P6 compiler in P6.

Now you can throw your compiler written in C away. Then you'll be able to compile the next versions of your P6 compiler using the previous versions of itself.

Bootstrap the fucking compiler.

You dumbasses, >>4 already suggested that, and I'm looking for a more simple solution.

Is there a simpler solution?

Thank you, good sir for using the correct word in your comment.

Dude, there is none. Short of interpreting the compiler yourself and writing the ASM yourself.

Just write a simple compiler that implements a short subset of the language and does no optimization in C, faggot.

This is not trolling, if posts about xkcd don't receive negative attention, people will start to think that xkcd is okay in [prog]spoiler[/prog]. WE must tell them to go away, or we'll turn into another /b/

dude if it is a COMPILER, you can just make a interpreter in some high level language (a lot easier), then interpret the compiler to compile itself, and ta-da you have a compiler
