Parsing can be done incrementally, and possibly symbol table building. Everything after that is wholistic. Lets face it: Felix doesn't even have separate compilation. REPL is a refinement of separate compilation -- Felix is designed as a WPA -- Whole Program Analyser. You could do some tricks. For example, accumulate definitions without rebuilding, since definitions don't "do" anything. Also don't forget, Felix uses *setwise* lookup: the scope of an identifier is the context in which it is defined, and that includes *previous* statements (like C function scope). -- John Skaller <skaller at users dot sf dot net> Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
