rxcc - Rochester X C Compiler

An x86 C compiler written in Swift.

Overview

Have you ever woken up one day and said to yourself, "Man, I'd really like to build a compiler today."?

Could be just me.

Well, ever since that fateful day, I've been chiseling away at this mammoth task, adding functionality in stages by following this series.

Features

This project is under active development, but here is a list of the currently implemented C language features:

• Unary Operators: The ~ (bitwise compliment), - (negation), and ! (logical negation) operators are implemented for integers, and can be applied to any term.
• Arithmetic Operators: The + (addition), - (subtraction), * (multiplication), and / (division) operators are implemented for integers, parsed according to their precedence levels in C.
• Functions: Each file currently supports exactly one function (so you'd be wise to make it "main"), with exactly one statement: an integer return statement. So yeah, not so useful yet.
• Variables: To be implemented soon.
