* Rename isPPC() -> isPowerPC32(). * Rename isPPC64() -> isPowerPC64(). * Add new isPowerPC() function which covers both. There was confusion even in the standard library about what isPPC() meant. This change makes these functions work how I think most people actually expect them to work, and makes them consistent with isMIPS(), isSPARC(), etc. I chose to rename from PPC to PowerPC because 1) it's more consistent with the other functions, and 2) it'll cause loud rather than silent breakage for anyone who might have been depending on isPPC() while misunderstanding it.
Aro
A C compiler with the goal of providing fast compilation and low memory usage with good diagnostics.
Aro is included as an alternative C frontend in the Zig compiler
for translate-c and eventually compiling C files by translating them to Zig first.
Aro is developed in https://github.com/Vexu/arocc and the Zig dependency is
updated from there when needed.
Currently most of standard C is supported up to C23 and as are many of the common extensions from GNU, MSVC, and Clang
Basic code generation is supported for x86-64 linux and can produce a valid hello world:
$ cat hello.c
extern int printf(const char *restrict fmt, ...);
int main(void) {
printf("Hello, world!\n");
return 0;
}
$ zig build && ./zig-out/bin/arocc hello.c -o hello
$ ./hello
Hello, world!
