* Take advantage of coercing anonymous struct literals to struct types. * Reworks Module to favor Zig source as the primary use case. Breaks ZIR compilation, which will have to be restored in a future commit. * Decl uses src_index rather then src, pointing to an AST Decl node index, or ZIR Module Decl index, rather than a byte offset. * ZIR instructions have an `analyzed_inst` field instead of Module having a hash table. * Module.Fn loses the `fn_type` field since it is redundant with its `owner_decl` `TypedValue` type. * Implement Type and Value copying. A ZIR Const instruction's TypedValue is copied to the Decl arena during analysis, which allows freeing the ZIR text instructions post-analysis. * Don't flush the ELF file if there are compilation errors. * Function return types allow arbitrarily complex expressions. * AST->ZIR for function calls and return statements.
A general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

Building from Source
Note that you can download a binary of master branch.
Stage 1: Build Zig from C++ Source Code
Dependencies
POSIX
- cmake >= 2.8.5
- gcc >= 5.0.0 or clang >= 3.6.0
- LLVM, Clang, LLD development libraries == 10.x, compiled with the same gcc or clang version above
- Use the system package manager, or build from source.
Windows
- cmake >= 3.15.3
- Microsoft Visual Studio. Supported versions:
- 2015 (version 14)
- 2017 (version 15.8)
- 2019 (version 16)
- LLVM, Clang, LLD development libraries == 10.x
- Use the pre-built binaries or build from source.
Instructions
POSIX
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make install
MacOS
brew install cmake llvm
brew outdated llvm || brew upgrade llvm
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$(brew --prefix llvm)
make install
You will now run into this issue: homebrew and llvm 10 packages in apt.llvm.org are broken with undefined reference to getPollyPluginInfo
Please help upstream LLVM and Homebrew solve this issue, there is nothing Zig can do about it. See that issue for a workaround you can do in the meantime.
Windows
See https://github.com/ziglang/zig/wiki/Building-Zig-on-Windows
