I want to make myself a compiler in QBasic. Do you want to write the compiler in QBasic, and if so, what language are you compiling, or do you want to make a compiler that translates QBasic to 8052 code? Why this view? because I want to make my own 8051 compiler with Qbasic easily. Writing a compiler is never easy. You need a solid background in finite autonoma and compiler theory. I'm not trying to discourage you, but merely pointing out the complexity of the task. Trust me, the first assembler I wrote was a piece of crap (although it worked and met my needs at the time). The definitive text on the subject is Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools, by Aho, Sethi, and Ullman. It's a bit of an overkill for most situations (read: you pretty much need a Masters in math, and a Bachelors in computer science just to understand it). Some more accessible, but good, texts on the subject are: Modern Compiler Design, Grune, et. al, Compiler Design in C, Allen Holub (recommended), Compiler Construction, Ken Louden (simple but incomplete), A Small C Compiler, James Hendrix. |

| Take it from here | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Compiler, or Assembler? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| well its always good to be ambitious | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| do it yourself compiler | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| SDCC | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| A simple alternative | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| There's a small-c compiler, too | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| update | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| why \'small\' when \'full\' is available for free | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Mike, what are you doing? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Benefits | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Jez, please READ the context | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Point taken | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| That inspired me, I am starting a thread in the ch | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Maybe this will help??? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| he's gone | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| He probably figured out how much work it was | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| done! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| So ... which language does it compile? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
Sure | 01/01/70 00:00 |
