Compojure

This is an in-progress compiler for a subset of the C language (called the "E" language in this project, which will hopefully resemble C closely once finished), written in Clojure.

This is an application project for CentraleSupélec's compilation course : the compiler was initially meant to be written in OCaml (based on this skeleton), but I was looking for a cool project to perfect my Clojure skills, so I figured I would just re-write it in Clojure.

Progress

  • Lexer and parser (using Instaparse)

  • Translation from AST to E-lang high level representation, and interpreter for this representation (e_interpreter.clj). This interpreter is called by default from the main function :

    $ lein run "main(a) { return a + 1; }" 4
    >> 5
    
  • Translation to CFG (Control Flow Graph) IR, and interpreter for this IR (cfg_interpreter.clj)

  • Dead code detection and elimination

  • Translation to RTL (Register Transfer Language)

  • Translation to RISC-V assembly

Language features

More features will be added once a first working compiler for the initial set of features is achieved.

  • Integer literals and variables
  • Integer arithmetic
  • Variable assignment
  • Print statement
  • Return statement
  • While loops
  • If/else conditionals
  • Subroutines (allow calling other functions from main)
  • String type
  • Arrays
  • Global variables
  • Pointers
