List of compiler source files

  What follows is a list of all compiler files, with a short description of what they contain. If you're looking for something in the compiler, this list may give you a hint on where to find it.

The first list is a list of processor dependent files.

aasm.pas

This unit defines some abstract assembler objects and routines. It is used by the processor-specific assembly routines.

alpha.pas, i386.pas, m68k.pas

These units describe a processor, its registers, flags etc. The basis for every generated instruction. Currently the DEC alpha, Intel 386 or higher and Motorola 68000 processors are supported.

tgen68k.pas, tgeni386.pas

These units export help functions for the code generator, which are processor specific, they form a buffer between the code generator and the machine-specific stuff.

cg68k.pas, cgi386.pas, cgi3862.pas

These units contain the code generators for the different processor types. For the I386 there are 2 files.

cga68k.pas cgai386.pas

These units contain frequently-used helper functions for the processor-specific code generators.

aopt386.pas

These units contain the code optimizers for the different processor-types.

asmalpha.pas

This unit defines some DEC alpha assembly constructs.

attasmi3.pas, gasasm6.pas, intasmi3.pas

These units define processor-specific assembly output classes.

opts386.pas, opts68k.pas

These units process command-line options that are processor specific.

radi386.pas rai386.pas ratti386.pas

These units process inline assembly in different styles (AT&T style, Intel style, and direct style) for the Intel 386 processor.

rasm386.pas

This unit provides some helper routines for the assembly readers.

The second list is a list with processor-independent files.

catch.pas

This is a LINUX specific call. It intercepts a segmentation fault, and lets the compiler exit gracefully.

cobjects.pas

This unit provides some basic objects for the compiler: buffered files, linked lists, string containers, etc.

compiler.pas

This unit contains the actual compile function.

errors.pas

This unit takes care of error-handling: displaying of error messages, reading of error-definitions etc.

files.pas

This unit contains file management routines, such as finding of files etc. It is highly OS dependent.

gdb.pas

This unit implements the debugging information generation for the gnu GDB debugger.

globals.pas

This unit defines some help routines that are used throughout the entire compiler, and it does some initializations.

hcodegen.pas

This unit contains processor-independent helper routines for the code generator.

options.pas

This unit processes the processor-independent command-line options.

scanner.pas

This unit contains the scanner routines. Here the input file is read and split in tokens.

parser.pas, pass_1.pas

These units contain the actual Pascal parser.

pp.pas

This is the main program. It does some initializations and sets the ball rolling.

symtable.pas

This unit contains the code that keeps the symbol tables for the parser. It also contains the code to read a unit file.

systems.pas

This unit defines the different operating systems: names, specifications of file systems, places where to look for things etc.

sysutils.pas

This unit keeps routines for exception handling.

tree.pas

The main structure for the code generator is a tree of operators and operands, and this unit defines the tree structure.

types.pas

This unit contains some helper routines for handling of different Pascal types.

verbose.pas

This unit provides the verbosity support. All messages from the compiler are put on screen with this unit.
