#Compiler design book code#
TPC16 source code reveals Turbo Pascal internals showing all the secrets of a successful compiler. It is consisted of many units like Scanner, Symbol Tables, Parser, Expressions, Statements, Inline Assembler, Code Generator, OMF import, Linker, and others. TPC16 is a complete Turbo Pascal compiler written from scratch. The goal was accomplished with TPC16, Turbo Pascal compiler written in Borland Turbo Pascal. Compatible compiler means compatible on the source level and on the binary level - compiling the Turbo Pascal 7 source files and generating the same units and executable code. My first goal was to write a Pascal compiler that would be compatible with Borland Turbo Pascal command line compiler. Mainly because I got some books about compiler construction (see below) and I wanted to have a good, Turbo Pascal compatible compiler for the 8051 family of microcontrollers. My passion for Pascal programming language brought me to the decision to write my own Pascal compiler. Turbo Pascal was my primary developing platform for years, until Borland introduced Delphi. Therefore, I was using Turbo Pascal since it was available on the CP/M platform in early 1980s. I am a big fan of Pascal programming language. The most popular Pascal compiler like Turbo Pascal, for example. An additional benefit in understanding the best compiler approaches would be to have a possibility to take a look into the internal architecture of some successful commercial compiler. There are some open-source compilers around. And before you start writing you should check the source code of some existing compiler. However, to have every aspect of a compiler under total control you need to write your own compiler. To write such a program from scratch is inevitably a time consuming task which includes reinventing the wheel. In order to learn about practical compiler algorithms, internal data representation and to test new approaches you need a working compiler to work with. There are many compiler construction tools around, but they don't provide the best approach to design a fast, standalone compiler. However, the best book on compiler construction is the compiler itself. Some compiler books that I recommend are listed below. There are many excellent books on compiler design and implementation. You need to understand the whole process of compilation in order to properly design symbol tables, scanner, parser, internal data representation, intermediate code structure, optimization passes, and other compiler building blocks. Every compiler is a tight cooperation of data structures and algorithms. Designing a compiler is not a simple task.
