HBURG 1.1.2 Released

Posted by igor Thu, 26 Jun 2008 19:15:00 GMT

After loads of refactoring work a new version of HBURG has been released. If you have cabal install you can easily get it by executing the following commands:

 $ cabal update
 $ cabal install hburg

Of course you can also use the instructions provided here.

Notable changes:

  • Completely refactored back-end
  • Automated integration tests via Test.hs. Execute tests by running:
 $ runghc Test.hs clean configure build test
  • The example Java compiler that demonstrates HBURGs usage has also been revised and updated. See HBURGs homepage for more information on the example compiler.

I am actively working on a C# back-end so you can use HBURG to generate a code generator for a compiler written in C#. This should come in handy for the advanced compiler course at the SSW.
