I've modified the libjit build system in CVS to use libtool for shared library
support.
This is my first big attempt at using libtool in a real project (ignoring the
half-hearted attempt with pnetlib/Xsharp), so it is likely that I have missed
something. I would appreciate it if people could check out the CVS version
on your platform of choice and test it (and better yet, submit patches for
the broken stuff :-) ).
Libjit is quickly getting to the "bascially useful" point, with Dynamic Pascal
able to run useful applications now; especially the most important
application of all:
program Hello;
begin
WriteLn("Hello World!");
end.
:-) It can do a lot more than that of course: functions, local variables, if,
while, record types, etc, are fairly stable with the interpreted back end
(x86 coming RSN).
I'll need lots of testers very soon to help write test cases to exercise all
of libjit's functionality.
Cheers,
Rhys.
