Clone

Git clone the repository (using --recursive to also include Sub-Modules):

git clone --recursive https://github.com/FedericoStazi/dlang.git

Enter the dlang/ folder:

cd dlang/

Build

Build Slang, DLANG-C and DLANG-VM:

./build.py all

Build Meta-DLANG-VM:

./build.py meta

Run

DLANG-C

Compile a program program.dlang to byte-code:

./dlang_c/dlang_c program.dlang -o program.out

DLANG-VM

Interpret a byte-code program program.out using DLANG-VM:

./dlang_vm/dlang_vm program.out

DLANG-VM provides many arguments, such as:

./dlang_vm/dlang_vm --jit-policy function --memory mark-and-sweep --optimizations copy-propagation,redundant-checks program.out

Meta-DLANG-VM

Interpret a byte-code program program.out using Meta-DLANG-VM:

./meta_dlang_vm program.out

Test

Unit

Run unit tests (only available if building DLANG-VM in Debug mode):

./tests/test.py unit

Differential

Run differential tests:

./tests/test.py differential

Fuzz

Run fuzz tests:

./tests/test.py fuzz

Benchmark

Run benchmarks:

./tests/benchmark.py
