bcc (BIP Compiler Collection)

The bcc.cpp file is a complete and ready to use compiler. It is able to compile BIPLAN source into BIP machine language.

How to build it

  1. Open the console
  2. Locate the BIPLAN/examples/LINUX/bcc-compiler directory
  3. Digit sudo make
  4. Digit sudo make install

The bcc executable

With bcc you can compile a BIPLAN program into BIP machine language.

bcc [BIPLAN input file] [BIP output file]

The bcc executable is copied in usr/bin to be reachable everywhere within your system; it receives 2 parameters, the BIPLAN input file and the BIP output file. If the 2 files are not in the same directory your terminal is in you will need to specify the path to reach them.

How to use it

In this directory you find fib.biplan, it contains a BIPLAN program able to compute the 40th number of the fibonacci series 100.000 times. Let's compile it into BIP machine language in fib.bip. To do so:

  1. Open the console
  2. Locate the BIPLAN/examples/LINUX/bcc-compiler directory
  3. Digit bcc fib.biplan ../biplan-interpreter/fib.bip

Expected output:

BCC (BIP Compiler Collection) Giovanni Blu Mitolo 2024
Source: fib.biplan
Target: ../biplan-interpreter/fib.bip
Source length: 410B, BIP length: 57B, reduction: 86.097565%
Compilation time: 1241 microseconds

The compiler should have created fib.bip inside the biplan-interpreter directory.

You can now give a try to the biplan-interpreter and use it to run fib.bip.
