LooPi Language - TDS

This project consists of a compiler developed in C as a practical work for the "Software Design Workshop" course. The compiler takes as input programs written in the LP Language and generates x86-64 assembly code.

Project Structure

The project has the following folder structure:

• src/: Source code of the compiler divided into modules
  • backend/: Intermediate and assembly code generation
  • error-handling/: Error handler
  • frontend/: Lexical, syntactic and semantic analysis
  • structures/: Data structures used
• tests/: Test suite
  • accept/: Valid test cases that should be accepted
  • reject/: Invalid test cases that should be rejected
• build.sh: Script to build the compiler
• test.sh: Script to execute the test suite
• loopi.sh: Script to compile, link and execute .lp programs
• report/: Documentation and project report

Dependencies

The following dependencies are required to build and execute the compiler:

• CMake >= 3.10
• C Compiler (GCC recommended)
• In some cases g++

Compilation and Execution

To build the compiler execute:

./build.sh  

This will generate the Compiler executable inside build/ that can be used to compile .lp programs.

To execute the test suite:

./test.sh

Test results will be informed via standard error output.

To compile and execute a .lp program:

./loopi.sh path/to/program.lp  

For example, to execute tests/accept/test_fib.lp:

./loopi.sh tests/accept/test_fib.lp   

Documentation

The report/ folder contains a detailed report of the project development, configurations, relevant decisions and limitations.
