首选语言:C/ c++、Java、Ruby。

我正在寻找一些关于如何编写自己的编译器的有用书籍/教程,只是为了教育目的。我最熟悉C/ c++、Java和Ruby,所以我更喜欢包含这三者之一的资源,但任何好的资源都是可以接受的。

如果你想使用功能强大的高级工具,而不是自己构建一切,那么阅读本课程的项目和阅读材料是一个很好的选择。这是一门语言课程,由Java解析器引擎ANTLR的作者编写。你可以从Pragmatic Programmers网站上获得这门课程的PDF版本。

The course goes over the standard compiler compiler stuff that you'd see elsewhere: parsing, types and type checking, polymorphism, symbol tables, and code generation. Pretty much the only thing that isn't covered is optimizations. The final project is a program that compiles a subset of C. Because you use tools like ANTLR and LLVM, it's feasible to write the entire compiler in a single day (I have an existence proof of this, though I do mean ~24 hours). It's heavy on practical engineering using modern tools, a bit lighter on theory.

顺便说一下,LLVM非常棒。在许多情况下,你可能会编译到汇编,你最好编译到LLVM的中间表示。它是更高级别的、跨平台的,LLVM非常擅长从中生成优化的程序集。

你可能想看看Lex/Yacc(或Flex/Bison,随便你怎么称呼它们)。Flex是一个词法分析器,它将解析和识别语言的语义组件(“标记”),而Bison将用于定义解析每个标记时发生的情况。这可以是,但绝对不限于,打印出C代码,供编译器编译成C,或者动态运行指令。

这个常见问题应该对你有帮助,这个教程看起来很有用。

我同意龙书的参考;IMO,它是编译器构造的权威指南。准备好接受一些核心理论吧。

If you want a book that is lighter on theory, Game Scripting Mastery might be a better book for you. If you are a total newbie at compiler theory, it provides a gentler introduction. It doesn't cover more practical parsing methods (opting for non-predictive recursive descent without discussing LL or LR parsing), and as I recall, it doesn't even discuss any sort of optimization theory. Plus, instead of compiling to machine code, it compiles to a bytecode that is supposed to run on a VM that you also write.

这仍然是一本不错的读物,尤其是如果你能在亚马逊上以便宜的价格买到的话。如果你只想简单介绍编译器,《Game Scripting Mastery》是个不错的选择。如果你想先玩硬核游戏,那么你应该选择《龙之书》。

“…让我们构建一个编译器……”

我认为@sasb是http://compilers.iecc.com/crenshaw/的第二名。暂时忘掉买更多的书吧。

为什么?工具和语言。

所需的语言是Pascal,如果我没记错的话,是基于Turbo-Pascal的。如果你去http://www.freepascal.org/并下载Pascal编译器,所有的例子都可以直接从页面上运行~ http://www.freepascal.org/download.var Free Pascal的好处是,你可以使用它几乎任何你喜欢的处理器或操作系统。

一旦你掌握了课程,然后尝试更高级的“龙书”~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_book

Not included in the list so far is this book: Basics of Compiler Design (Torben Mogensen) (from the dept. of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen) I'm also interested in learning about compilers and plan to enter that industry in the next couple of years. This book is the ideal theory book to begin learning compilers as far as I can see. It's FREE to copy and reproduce, cleanly and carefully written and gives it to you in plain English without any code but still presents the mechanics by way of instructions and diagrams etc. Worth a look imo.
