Binterpreter

A simple bytecode interpreter with a compiler frontend. Largely based off Bob Nystrom's clox in the book Crafting Interpreters, with more advanced garbage collection (Generational GC) to better simulate modern runtimes.

Prerequisites

• gcc
• make

Build

make

The build output can be found in out/binterpreter. The executable current runs as a REPL.

Running a source file

Debugging

Compile with the following to:

• Print compiled bytecode chunk: make CFLAGS="-Wall -Wextra -Isrc -g -fsanitize=address -DDEBUG_PRINT_CODE"
• Trace VM execution: make CFLAGS="-Wall -Wextra -Isrc -g -fsanitize=address -DDEBUG_TRACE_EXECUTION
