Hi all, I just recently completed my initial work on a cpptasks compiler/linker adapter for my company's proprietary C development tools for the IGNITE family of microprocessors. We would like to contribute this code to the cpptasks codebase and have it become and integral part of cpptasks. The IGNITE microprocessor is a stack-based bytecode processor designed by PTSC. We are aware that there are currently very few users of this technology, so this code is probably of little interest of the majority of cpptasks users. However, we still would like to see it as a part of the cpptasks project for a number of reasons. First, we would like to get us in a better position if parts of the cpptasks API should change in the future. It is already a big advantage for us, if other developers know of the existence of this code and are alerted if an API change would break that code. Also, exposure to the cpptasks developer community might give us additional feedback about the implementation of our compiler/linker adapter. Finally, maybe this code can also serve as another example of implementing new adapters for cpptasks. When I first started this project, I noticed that most existing code was only sparsely documented, so I took extra care to document in the code why things are implemented the way they are. Anyway, I have attached a zip file containing the sources for the IGNITE compiler/linker adapter. I'd be very happy if someone could take the time and check those sources into the cpptasks repository. Let me know if I need to make changes to the code to comply with the current development rules of the ant-contrib/cpptasks project. Thanks a lot & Merry Christmas, Mirko Raner Software Engineer PTSC San Diego, CA |
