resurrecting the thread to contribute a great book/site for learning a ton about how interpreters are built: https://craftinginterpreters.com/ (a lot of the pieces apply to compilers as well, obviously)

I actually get to work on a compiler again for the first time in like a decade, and I also get to work on an interpreter! Everything is coming up Subjunctive! (Compiler is the winch compiler for wasmtime, which I’m doing a bit of work on mostly to learn ARM assembly, and the interpreter is CRuby where I’m going to try to bring in some performance tricks from other engines I’ve worked on.) When I worked on a JIT in ~2009, there were samizdat copies of a “new compiler book” draft floating around, seen as the successor to Muchnick. It was being worked on out of Berkeley, IIRC, but I don’t remember the authors’ names. Anyone know what I’m talking about, and if it ever got published? Subjunctive fucked around with this message at 15:48 on Feb 18, 2024 |
