Overview

Package compiler is the package which is actually responsible for reading the user-program and generating the binary result.

Internally this uses the parser, as you would expect

Types

type Compiler

type Compiler struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Compiler holds our state

func New

func New(src string) *Compiler

New creates a new instance of the compiler

func (*Compiler) Compile

func (c *Compiler) Compile() error

Compile walks over the parser-generated AST and assembles the source program.

Once the program has been completed an ELF executable will be produced

func (*Compiler) SetOutput

func (c *Compiler) SetOutput(path string)

SetOutput sets the path to the executable we create.

If no output has been specified we default to `./a.out`.
