M2-Planet latest release

M2-Planet latest release

[Jeremiah]

Today I proud to announce M2-Planet version 0.2.0
https://github.com/oriansj/M2-Planet
The world's simplest C compiler with support for:
structs with sizeof support
anonymous unions (inside of structs)
arrays
Inline assembly
Gotos
for, while and do loops with optional breaks
bitshifting
bitwise operations
escaped strings
Passable function pointers
Written and self-hosting in a lovely C99 subset
optional dwarf footers (thanks to mescc-tools blood-elf) allowing for
objdump and gdb to play nicely
and 100% deterministic output

Able to be bootstrapped from a trivial Macro-assembler and hex2-linker
(which when hand made are under 3KB total)
which can be found here:
https://github.com/oriansj/mescc-tools
or via any C compiler that supports only 60% of the features of M2-Planet

Looks nice!  How do it compare to tcc?  (http://www.tinycc.org/)

Well at only 1,607 lines of code:
an order of magnitude smaller
less dependencies
simpler build
less complete support for c99
No optimization phase
No preprocessor (nor need for one)
Doesn't support // line comments

Generally what you'd expect for a compiler optimized for bootstrapping bigger compilers

Congratulations, and wonderful!

I guess it's ready now to bootstrap mes.c, the world most bootstrap-ready
Scheme interpreter?

And very bootstrappable!
