A compiler for the Natrix language, the final project of the Language Processing course at the University of Beira Interior (UBI).

Natrix Compiler Interpreter

This is the compiler and interpreter of the Natrix language. (Link to the documentation bellow).

How to Use It

If you have downloaded the source code use the makefile that is in the folder ./Compiler.

make

This coomand will generate the natrix.exe executable.

The program offers a set of options:

-parser-only: Executes only the lexer and parser. -print-ast : Print the abstract syntax tree of the given file. -interpt : Uses the interpreter instead of the compiler.

Using an option:

dune exec ./natrix.exe -interpt file.nx

How to Test

This project contains a folder with a set of tests, the easiast way to test the compiler and interpreter is to use the entry test in the makefile.

make

make test

natrixcompilerinterpreter's Issues

Change the functions to the C standard

This link contains more details.

A better memory management for the compiler

Right now the compiler allocs the memory occupied by the program, a better aproach would be to alloc and free the memory only when needed.

Example:

if( ... )
{
    // Allocs the memory needed by the if statement
    // ...
    // Frees the memory
}

When entering a function or a if statement.
