Hello,
I build a new gcc front end for my language called "uml",
I do not use a parser or a lexer, I generate the GENRIC form directly from
another tool that parse my source file "test.uml". in a txt file that I include
in my compiler parse_file hook.
void uml_parse_file (int debug_flag ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED)
{
.....
#include "/export/home/charfi/test.txt";
.....
gimplify_function_tree(main_fn_decl);
cgraph_node(main_fn_decl);
cgraph_finalize_function(main_fn_decl, false);
}my test.txt looks contains all the tree that correspond to my source file
( for example if I have int x ;
my test.txt contains :
tree x_tree = build_decl(BUILTINS_LOCATION, VAR_DECL, get_identifier("x"),
integer_type_node); )
this works perfectly when I compile test.uml after generating the test.txt by
calling : guml test.uml -S -fdump-tree-all
however, when I try to compile another file test2.uml that need to read
test2.txt , I have to re make , re make install my front end. and modify the
uml_parse_file hook to modify the name of the text file .. #include
"/export/home/charfi/test2.txt";
I can modify this langhook by recovering the name using in_fnames[0] (first
argument of guml command)
but I can not pass this argument to the include command that requires only
<FILENAME> or "filename". (i,e. #include in_fnames[0] ; did not works )
my question is:
1. How can I modify my front end in order to not re make and remake install each
time I want to compile a new file (knowing that I want to keep my method that
build the Generic form first )?
thanks
Asma
