Features

I'll try and keep this page updated with the status of the compiler.

D Language support

• Variable declarations
  • Return value
  • Parameters
• Function declarations
• Struct declarations

• If and While statements

• Binary expressions
• Call expressions

• Integer types

Operations

The following operations is supported when running the Dang frontend:

• Generate llvm code.
  • Enable optimizing and/or inline.
• Generate Dot-tree of AST (Needs Updating)
• Generate Code-dump of AST (Needs Updating)

Currently lacking

• Good error-messaging
  • We are throwing the errors as exceptions for now, instead of finding as many as possible
  • The actual error messages can be good though - if we as an example forget a '=':

    test2.d(8:20): Unexpected token Integer
        struct Test { int x 2; }
                            ^
