Topic: Cross-compiler



  
 Compiler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Compilers which are capable of producing both native and foreign binary output may be called either a cross compiler or a native compiler depending on a specific use, although it would be more correct to classify them as a cross compilers.
Compiler construction and compiler optimization are taught at universities as part of the computer science curriculum.
A compiler is a computer program (or set of programs) that translates text written in a computer language (the source language) into another computer language (the target language).

A compiler is a computer program that translates a series of statements written in one computer language (called the source code) into a resulting output in another computer language (often called the object or target language).
However, translation from a low level language to a high level one is also possible; this is normally known as a decompiler if it is reconstructing a high level language program which (could have) generated the low level language program.

 javac - Java programming language compiler
The compiler needs type information for every class or interface used, extended, or implemented in the source file.
The compiler searches first in the bootstrap and extension classes, then in the user class path.
When the compiler needs type information, it looks for a source file or class file which defines the type.

 Hexapedia - Compiler
Compilers also exist which translate from one high level language to another (cross compilers), or sometimes to an intermediate language that still needs further processing; these are sometimes known as cascaders.
A compiler is a computer program that translates a computer program written in one computer language (called the source language) into an equivalent program written in another computer language (called the output or the target language).
Most compilers translate source code written in a high level language to object code or machine language that may be directly executed by a computer or a virtual machine.

 Supporting Cross-compilation
In the cross compilation case, either a different compiler may be used, the user can prebuild the program, or all of the necessary data can be supplied through environment variables.
The second kind of values provide information about the compiler, such as options for generating optimized code or for creating object files for shared libraries.
To support this, configure must be carefully written both to support cross-compilation and to provide for a way to specify the results that would have been determined by running a program.

 configure.info-2
When it is necessary to distinguish this case from the cross compilation case, such a compiler is called a "native compiler".
If the compiler can find the function, that means that the function is present in the host environment.
A cross compilation tool is a tool which runs on one system and produces code which runs on another system.

 Detailed how-to: Cross-compiling for Sharp Zaurus
Cross compilation occurs when a compiler running on one system produces executables for another system -- this is an important concept when the target system doesn't have a native set of compilation tools, or when the host system is faster or has greater resources.
When the host system (the one the compiler is running on) and the target system (the one the resulting programs will run on) are not compatible environments, the process is called cross compilation.
It is possible to run compilers natively on a Zaurus, but the system's limitations are barriers to efficient work, another reason that makes cross compilation such a boon for developers.

 distcc frequently asked questions
distcc parses the compiler command line to work out what operation is being invoked, and what are the input and output files.
One possibility is that it might be nice to allow a cache of compiled files to be shared across several users or machines.
This typically means that all machines must have a shared filesystem mounted at the same location, that they must all have exactly the same compiler, headers and libraries installed, their clocks must be in sync, and typically that they must all have the same OS and CPU architecture.

Cross compilers are very useful when bringing up a new hardware platform for the first time (see bootstrapping).
A compiler is a computer program that translates a computer program written in one computer language (called the source language) into an equivalent program written in another computer language (called the output, object, or target language).

 Daemon News '200312' : '"Cross-building Explained: Cross compilation on NetBSD "'
The cross compiler is only one element, albeit a very import one, of the entire process.
Certainly, certain pieces of software can be crossbuilt, but the more complex software attempts to figure out elements of its environment and adjust itself to match.
This ensures that NetBSD itself is built with a compiler that is known to be the correct version.

 Cross-compilation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The target platform usually only applies to compilers as it represents what type of object code the package itself will produce (such as cross-compiling a cross-compiler); otherwise the target platform setting is irrelevant.
For many embedded systems, cross-compilation is simply the only possible way to build programs, as the target hardware does not have the resources or capabilities.
For example, consider cross-compiling a video game that will run on the Dreamcast.

 Porting LinuxBIOS to the AMD SC520 Linux Journal
romcc is a simple optimizing C compiler-one file, 25,043 lines of code-that uses only registers, not memory.
But thanks to a new compiler and development process, we can build a BIOS for a new motherboard with only C code-no assembly.
This file is compiled by romcc, and in a proprietary BIOS it would be a large blob of assembly code.

 harbour.html
The goal of the Harbour Project is to create a cross-platform and open-source compiler for the xbase superset language known as Clipper.
Commercial vendors may drop their compiler products any day they wish; and even as long as they support them it will be on the platform, price-basis, and license terms that the vendor wishes.
Clipper was implemented first, and as Harbour's reference implementation, in CA-Clipper 5.2 (and largely in earlier versions of CA-Clipper); but supersets of Clipper have also been implemented commercially in at least Alaska Software's xBase++, Multisoft's Flagship and Computer Associates' Visual Objects.

 Integrated Preprocessor Interface
The XREF Compiler directive will not cause an accurate cross reference listing to be produced because information for code inserted by the preprocessor will not be shown, even if the original source line referenced the same data items.
If, by comparison, the Compiler read source files and passed single tokens to the preprocessor, restrictions such as the format of a token and the syntax of a COPY (or equivalent) statement would be imposed.
As preprocessor directives to the Compiler are terminated by the ENDP directive or the end of the line, multiple PREPROCESS directives must all appear on the same line in a directives file.
