gdhex12 / destructivec

A simple custom-made programming language with LLVM and C++.

This repository is a mirror of the original private project.

The DestructiveC (~~C) language

Custom made language with LLVM 13 which destructs any variable (removes from memory) after a single use in code if prepended with ~. Based on C++.

Limitations

The following are unimplemented:

• One-liner else if
• do... while

Only one "destructive" (DC) variable must remain in memory, multiple DC variables at the same time are not supported.

Compilation instructions

Linux

TO-DO: linker errors out with the .rodata ELF section (-fPIE / -no-pie does not make a difference).

---

Windows (MinGW)

Download precompiled binaries for LLVM and Clang 13.0.1-3 from the following link: https://repo.msys2.org/mingw/mingw64/

pacman -S cmake make git
git clone https://github.com/GDhex12/DestructiveC.git
pacman -U mingw-w64-x86_64-clang-13.0.1-3-any.pkg.tar.zst
pacman -U mingw-w64-x86_64-llvm-13.0.1-3-any.pkg.tar.zst
cd DestructiveC && mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/mingw64/bin/clang.exe -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/mingw64/bin/clang++.exe ..

Copy over the stdlib.h and math.h headers from /mingw64/include to /mingw64/x86_64-w64-mingw32/include to bypass a CMake bug.
