new compilers and languages support

(1/3) > >>

MariuszP:
I was wandering if it is possible and how much work would it take to add support for new compilers and languages. For example I would gladly see CB supporting development of apps for Pocket PC or Palm. As for languages I'm interested in adding support for Lua syntax and compiler (interpreter).

Any clues how to accomplish such task?

You can look as example the wiki topic "Installing Fortran Compiler" (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Fortran_Compiler). Moreover, C::B supports the SDCC compiler (http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/).

MariuszP:
I'll take a look at rhe fortran installation guide.
As for SDCC, how large subset of current ipaq's , palms uses processors mentioned in sdcc support list? Anyone knows? I may be wrong but new versions are based on completely different processors. So I'm wondering if sdcc will be able to compile apps for this new processors.

I'm trying to start ipaq development, I'm completely new to this so my questions might be stupid ;)

Michael:
Hello,

I am not sure that SDCC can be used to develop applications for ipaq (I have checked a bit on the website, but I did not find anything). You can try to post a question to the SDCC forum.

May be this could be interesting for you:

But it is relatively old.

Even if it is from Debian, I have read that it can work for win32 (http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/D/gnu/1247.html)
May be this could be implemented within C::B.

You can also try to google to get more info.

I'v took a look at thoose sites. It looks promising, but I't still WIP as far as I understood. Anyway, I will keep looking. I'll give some info when I'll find something usefull...
