Releases: modula3/cm3
d5.11.4
See Getting Started for help building and installing this release.
Available downloads:
- AMD64_LINUX for any 64-bit Linux, macOS, or BSD.
- AMD64_NT for 64-bit Windows with either Visual Studio or MinGW.
- I386_LINUX for 32-bit Linux.
- I386_NT for 32-bit Windows with Visual Studio.
This release introduces a new installer that supports a simple, source-based distribution containing a bootstrap compiler in C++. Because it is source-based, we only need to provide a small number of downloads to cover all tested systems. And because it includes a bootstrap, we no longer have to provide separate binary and source releases for each platform.
cm3 is now regularly built and tested on ARM.
This release includes a fix for alignment of 64-bit data on 32-bit systems, so that the I368_NT and I386_LINUX platforms now work.
It also includes a number of fixes for formal default and field default array constructors, bringing cm3 more in-line with the language definition.
Finally, there have been many fixes to the compiler test suite.
cm3-d5.11.3-20211007
d5.11.3 is a minor bugfix release, including
- an important correction to structural typing of records,
- a fix for static initializers in the C backend, and
- better support for building on MacOS.
See the Getting Started pages in the wiki for install instructions.

Source releases
cm3-boot-AMD64_MINGW-d5.11.2-20210623
This is the first AMD64_MINGW release.
It was an exceedingly small amount of work, building on the C backend.
Prerequisites:
Get Python2 working, such as with:
Install Python2 from somewhere such as python.org or activestate.com or apt-get.
Sometimes required: Install Python from Windows Store. For py.exe. i.e. for msys2 host.
Have a mingw64 toolchain working and in path.
Specifically we need x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++.exe, though this is configurable.
The specific "host" of this toolchain does not matter.
It can be Cygwin, msys2, etc. I used msys2.
To produce the bootstrap:
Have a working cm3 on any platform. I generally use AMD64_NT but they are basically all the same. Linux should work.
cd scripts/python
./boot1.py amd64_mingw # Maybe prefix with "py" e.g. on msys2.
To install the bootstrap:
tar xf cm3-boot-AMD64_MINGW-d5.11.2-20210623.tgz
cd cm3-boot-AMD64_MINGW-d5.11.2-20210623
# Optionally review the top of Makefile
make -j
# Test it, it should print an error about cm3.cfg:
./cm3.exe
# See that debugging works:
gdb ./cm3.exe
break main
r
q
# Install it somewhere:
mkdir -p /c/cm3/bin
mv cm3.exe /c/cm3/bin
export PATH=/c/cm3/bin:$PATH
cd ..
# Build more. Maybe prefix next with "py" e.g. on msys2.
./boot2min.py amd64_mingw
# Optionally, and again maybe with "py" at start.
./do-cm3-all.py buildship amd64_mingw
cm3-unix64le-d5.11.1-20210610
Remember some recurring values:
CM3VER=d5.11.1-20210610
CM3INST=$HOME/cm3 # or /cm3, etc
Download:
wget https://github.com/modula3/cm3/releases/download/unix64le-${CM3VER}/cm3-boot-unix64le-${CM3VER}.cpp.gz
wget https://github.com/modula3/cm3/archive/refs/tags/unix64le-${CM3VER}.tar.gz
The rest:
gunzip cm3-boot-unix64le-${CM3VER}.cpp.gz
g++ -g -pthread -c cm3-boot-unix64le-${CM3VER}.cpp
g++ -g -pthread -o cm3 cm3-boot-unix64le-${CM3VER}.o
sudo rm -rf ${CM3INST} # optionally remove previous
sudo mkdir -p ${CM3INST}/bin
sudo chown -R $USER ${CM3INST}
mv cm3 ${CM3INST}/bin
tar xf unix64le-${CM3VER}.tar.gz
cd cm3-unix64le-${CM3VER}
# Remove some stuff that is not used.
rm -rf m3-sys/m3cc
rm -rf m3-sys/m3gdb
cd scripts/python
sudo apt-get install python2
export PATH=${CM3INST}/bin:$PATH
./boot2min.py c
# At this point you have a working compiler and runtime, and
# "extra" build was done so the compiler built itself.
# And then optionally build more (somewhat error prone).
./do-cm3-all.py buildship c
The configuration sometimes defaults to using the gcc backend.
Edit ${CM3INST}/bin/cm3.cfg, put this line first:
readonly M3_BACKEND_MODE = "C"
(i.e. for the AMD64 targets, this is already the default for ARM64 and RISCV64).
You will want:
export PATH=${CM3INST}/bin:$PATH
in .bashrc or similar.
This for 64bit little endian Unix.
e.g. Linux, Mac, Solaris, BSD, amd64, arm64, riscv64.
Not all combinations tested.
There is plenty of support for 32bit, big endian, Windows, etc. but this is a sort of "binary" release that does not support everything.

This for 64bit little endian Unix.
e.g. Linux, amd64, arm64, riscv64.
It was meant to work with Solaris and Mac but this release does not.
It likely works with BSDs but that is not tested.
Directions presume install path and Linux but can be varied.
There is plenty of support for 32bit, big endian, Windows, etc. but this is a sort of "binary" release that does not support everything.
This is the first known release of cm3 of this kind, leveraging the C backend to avoid distributing binaries or assembly and targeting multiple systems with one distribution.
20210312 (March 12 2021)
Windows binary releases for x86 ("Win32") and AMD64 ("Win64").
Several C-based minimal distributions for Linux, Mac, and Windows.
March 12 2021
RISCV64_LINUX-20210227
RISCV64_LINUX-20210227
bootstrapped with C backend from AMD64_NT
Then natively built under qemu-system (qemu usermode is much faster but does not tolerate preemptive suspend)
A few packages skipped for expediency (caltech-other, m3scheme).
.deb also skipped because it failed.
AMD64_DARWIN-20210226
AMD64_DARWIN build Feb 26 2021.
With C backend.
Bootstrapped from AMD64_NT.
Might need a one line change to config, to enable C backend (m3cc is omitted)
i.e. M3_BACKEND_MODE = "C"
ARM64_DARWIN-20210224
ARM64_DARWIN release Feb 24 2021. C backend.
Missing X11/OpenGL/ODBC but Homebrew can likely fix that.
20210223
AMD64_LINUX and I386_LINUX built today with gcc backend.
Bootstrapped from AMD64_NT with boot1.py.
Then boot2.py and make-dist.py on native hosts.
