NOTICE:

I am beginning a transition away from GitHub. You can now find this project at source hut instead.

harec

This is the Hare compiler ported (WIP) to macOS.

Build status

See Notes.

Building

./configure
make
sudo make install

Optionally, build and run the test suite as well:

make check

Runtime

harec includes a minimal runtime under rt which is suitable for running the test suite, but not recommended for production use. See docs/runtime.txt for details on how to provide your own runtime implementation, or use the Hare standard library (Not compiling on macOS yet).

Notes

STATUS: makes successfully, make check fails

Error Fixes

For those who think that this is comprehensive or even understandable, think again. If anything, this is a whole list of reasons to not use this because of the horrible ways that I stumbled to random fixes. Might blow up your computer?

  • For the .section "something" errors, add , "ax" to the end of the line. This couldn't possibly go wrong, right? (I might try changing all of those "ax"s to just "a" and see what happens)
  • For the .section .text.something errors, replace the entire line with .text. This couldn't possibly go wrong, right? (I am actually pretty sure that this one will work out. From what I see, the extra stuff is just for GAS assembly)
  • error: ADR/ADRP relocations must be GOT relative, error: unknown AArch64 fixup kind!: I actually did some stuff to QBE (nothing massive, see diff here) to fix this. See this SO answer.
  • Undefined symbols for architecture (insert arch) (on make check): Nothing yet. Fixing this is the current priority. It might be caused by differences between where FreeBSD keeps stuff and macOS? Who knows.
