You know, we looked at LLVM very early, and decided not to use it. We made that decision for two reasons:
1. We would eventually be forced to replace it anywany LLVM is not built on a safe language. Aside: I find it absolutely bewildering that any compiler infrastructure started after 1995 would be built on unsafe infrastructure. 2. At the time, it wasn't clear how to deal with the requirements of GC in LLVM. That part of the infrastructure had not really been explored yet. 3. LLVM didn't target some processors we cared about. The first two reasons, in hindsight, were probably mistakes. shap On Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 2:32 PM, Raoul Duke <[email protected]> wrote: >>> So it is decided that bitc shall no be usable for embedded systems? > > presumably llvm is another option; apparently C isn't the be-all-end-all :) > _______________________________________________ > bitc-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.coyotos.org/mailman/listinfo/bitc-dev > >
