- Short: Eiffel compiler in E (unfinished)
- Type: dev/e
- Author: Damien Guichard
- Uploader: Wouter van Oortmerssen (wouter@mars.let.uva.nl)
-
- Compiler for the Eiffel Language, written in Amiga E. The author intended it
- to become a professional Eiffel implementation for the Amiga, stopped the
- project prematurely due to perceived lack of interest from the Amiga
- community.
-
- The compiler is small, fast, and directly generates 68k code (though the
- backend is modular). This distribution includes the compiler and full sources
- in E, plus a small set of Eiffel files and documents. I imagine that it can
- be useful for the following people:
-
- - E programmers. The source is very clean, modular, and written in a dense OO
- style. Very educative.
- - Eiffel programmers. Though it's not finished, it's worth having a look at.
- - People that want to learn how compilers work, regardless of wether they
- program in E.
- - Serious programmers who think they might carry the project to a fully
- working version, enhance it, cover the Eiffel definition more closely,
- translate it into another language, retarget it to another processor, or
- whatever. You probably will want to contact me (Wouter) and/or the original
- author. Whatever you choose to do, always credit the original author.
