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。

这是一个庞大的课题。不要低估这一点。不要低估我的观点。 我听说龙之书是一个(?)开始的地方,连同搜索。(收集学会寻找,最终它将成为你的人生。 构建自己的编程语言绝对是一个很好的练习!但你要知道,它最终永远不会被用于任何实际目的。这种情况很少有例外。

Donald Knuth的《计算机编程的艺术》最初是作为编译器编写的教程而写的,这让我很惊讶。

当然,Knuth博士对主题深入研究的倾向导致编译器写作教程被扩展到大约9卷,其中只有3卷真正出版了。这是一个关于编程主题的相当完整的阐述,涵盖了关于编写编译器需要了解的所有细节。

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》。

列表中缺少:Jones和Lins的《垃圾收集:自动动态内存管理的算法》。

(假设您正在编写编译器和运行时系统,并且正在实现一种垃圾收集语言。

I think Modern Compiler Implementation in ML is the best introductory compiler writing text. There's a Java version and a C version too, either of which might be more accessible given your languages background. The book packs a lot of useful basic material (scanning and parsing, semantic analysis, activation records, instruction selection, RISC and x86 native code generation) and various "advanced" topics (compiling OO and functional languages, polymorphism, garbage collection, optimization and single static assignment form) into relatively little space (~500 pages).

我更喜欢《现代编译器实现》而不是《Dragon》,因为《现代编译器实现》对该领域的调查较少——相反,它确实涵盖了编写一个严肃、体面的编译器所需的所有主题。在你读完这本书之后,如果你需要的话,你就可以直接深入研究论文了。

I must confess I have a serious soft spot for Niklaus Wirth's Compiler Construction. It is available online as a PDF. I find Wirth's programming aesthetic simply beautiful, however some people find his style too minimal (for example Wirth favors recursive descent parsers, but most CS courses focus on parser generator tools; Wirth's language designs are fairly conservative.) Compiler Construction is a very succinct distillation of Wirth's basic ideas, so whether you like his style or not or not, I highly recommend reading this book.

每当我想尝试一种新的语言想法时,我就写一个简单的解析器,让它生成一些容易获得良好编译器的语言,比如C。

你认为c++是如何完成的?
