<h2 class="chapter">1 Introduction</h2>
<p>TinyCC (aka TCC) is a small but hyper fast C compiler. Unlike other C
compilers, it is meant to be self-relying: you do not need an
external assembler or linker because TCC does that for you.
</p>
<p>TCC compiles so <em>fast</em> that even for big projects <code>Makefile</code>s may
not be necessary.
</p>
<p>TCC not only supports ANSI C, but also most of the new ISO C99
standard and many GNUC extensions including inline assembly.
</p>
<p>TCC can also be used to make <em>C scripts</em>, i.e. pieces of C source
that you run as a Perl or Python script. Compilation is so fast that
your script will be as fast as if it was an executable.
</p>
<p>TCC can also automatically generate memory and bound checks
(see <a href="#Bounds">Bounds</a>) while allowing all C pointers operations. TCC can do
these checks even if non patched libraries are used.
</p>
<p>With <code>libtcc</code>, you can use TCC as a backend for dynamic code
generation (see <a href="#Libtcc">Libtcc</a>).
</p>
<p>TCC mainly supports the i386 target on Linux and Windows. There are alpha
ports for the ARM (<code>arm-tcc</code>) and the TMS320C67xx targets
(<code>c67-tcc</code>). More information about the ARM port is available at
<a href="http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/tinycc-devel/2003-10/msg00044.html">http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/tinycc-devel/2003-10/msg00044.html</a>.
</p>
<p>For usage on Windows, see also <a href="tcc-win32.txt">tcc-win32.txt</a>.

<a name="Command-line-invocation"></a>
<h2 class="chapter">2 Command line invocation</h2>
<a name="Quick-start"></a>
<h3 class="section">2.1 Quick start</h3>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">usage: tcc [options] [<var>infile1</var> <var>infile2</var>&hellip;] [<samp>-run</samp> <var>infile</var> <var>args</var>&hellip;]
</pre></div>
<p>TCC options are a very much like gcc options. The main difference is that TCC
can also execute directly the resulting program and give it runtime
arguments.
</p>
<p>Here are some examples to understand the logic:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -run a.c</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Compile <samp>a.c</samp> and execute it directly
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -run a.c arg1</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Compile a.c and execute it directly. arg1 is given as first argument to
the <code>main()</code> of a.c.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc a.c -run b.c arg1</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Compile <samp>a.c</samp> and <samp>b.c</samp>, link them together and execute them. arg1 is given
as first argument to the <code>main()</code> of the resulting program.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -o myprog a.c b.c</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Compile <samp>a.c</samp> and <samp>b.c</samp>, link them and generate the executable <samp>myprog</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -o myprog a.o b.o</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>link <samp>a.o</samp> and <samp>b.o</samp> together and generate the executable <samp>myprog</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -c a.c</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Compile <samp>a.c</samp> and generate object file <samp>a.o</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -c asmfile.S</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Preprocess with C preprocess and assemble <samp>asmfile.S</samp> and generate
object file <samp>asmfile.o</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -c asmfile.s</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Assemble (but not preprocess) <samp>asmfile.s</samp> and generate object file
<samp>asmfile.o</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>&lsquo;<samp>tcc -r -o ab.o a.c b.c</samp>&rsquo;</code></dt>
<dd><p>Compile <samp>a.c</samp> and <samp>b.c</samp>, link them together and generate the object file <samp>ab.o</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>Scripting:
</p>
<p>TCC can be invoked from <em>scripts</em>, just as shell scripts. You just
need to add <code>#!/usr/local/bin/tcc -run</code> at the start of your C source:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#!/usr/local/bin/tcc -run
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
int main()
{
printf(&quot;Hello World\n&quot;);
return 0;
}
</pre></div>
<p>TCC can read C source code from <em>standard input</em> when <samp>-</samp> is used in
place of <samp>infile</samp>. Example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">echo 'main(){puts(&quot;hello&quot;);}' | tcc -run -
</pre></div>
<a name="Option-summary"></a>
<h3 class="section">2.2 Option summary</h3>
<p>General Options:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><samp>-c</samp></dt>
<dd><p>Generate an object file.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><samp>-o outfile</samp></dt>
<dd><p>Put object file, executable, or dll into output file <samp>outfile</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><samp>-run source [args...]</samp></dt>
<dd><p>Compile file <var>source</var> and run it with the command line arguments
<var>args</var>. In order to be able to give more than one argument to a
script, several TCC options can be given <em>after</em> the
<samp>-run</samp> option, separated by spaces:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">tcc &quot;-run -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11&quot; ex4.c
</pre></div>
<p>In a script, it gives the following header:

<h2 class="chapter">3 C language support</h2>
<a name="ANSI-C"></a>
<h3 class="section">3.1 ANSI C</h3>
<p>TCC implements all the ANSI C standard, including structure bit fields
and floating point numbers (<code>long double</code>, <code>double</code>, and
<code>float</code> fully supported).
</p>
<a name="ISOC99-extensions"></a>
<h3 class="section">3.2 ISOC99 extensions</h3>
<p>TCC implements many features of the new C standard: ISO C99. Currently
missing items are: complex and imaginary numbers.
</p>
<p>Currently implemented ISOC99 features:
</p>
<ul>
<li> variable length arrays.
</li><li> 64 bit <code>long long</code> types are fully supported.
</li><li> The boolean type <code>_Bool</code> is supported.
</li><li> <code>__func__</code> is a string variable containing the current
function name.
</li><li> Variadic macros: <code>__VA_ARGS__</code> can be used for
function-like macros:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> #define dprintf(level, __VA_ARGS__) printf(__VA_ARGS__)
</pre></div>
<p><code>dprintf</code> can then be used with a variable number of parameters.
</p>
</li><li> Declarations can appear anywhere in a block (as in C++).
</li><li> Array and struct/union elements can be initialized in any order by
using designators:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> struct { int x, y; } st[10] = { [0].x = 1, [0].y = 2 };
int tab[10] = { 1, 2, [5] = 5, [9] = 9};
</pre></div>
</li><li> Compound initializers are supported:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> int *p = (int []){ 1, 2, 3 };
</pre></div>
<p>to initialize a pointer pointing to an initialized array. The same
works for structures and strings.
</p>
</li><li> Hexadecimal floating point constants are supported:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> double d = 0x1234p10;
</pre></div>
<p>is the same as writing
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example"> double d = 4771840.0;
</pre></div>
</li><li> <code>inline</code> keyword is ignored.
</li><li> <code>restrict</code> keyword is ignored.
</li></ul>
<a name="GNU-C-extensions"></a>
<h3 class="section">3.3 GNU C extensions</h3>
<p>TCC implements some GNU C extensions:
</p>
<ul>
<li> array designators can be used without &rsquo;=&rsquo;:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> int a[10] = { [0] 1, [5] 2, 3, 4 };
</pre></div>
</li><li> Structure field designators can be a label:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> struct { int x, y; } st = { x: 1, y: 1};
</pre></div>
<p>instead of
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example"> struct { int x, y; } st = { .x = 1, .y = 1};
</pre></div>
</li><li> <code>\e</code> is ASCII character 27.
</li><li> case ranges : ranges can be used in <code>case</code>s:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> switch(a) {
case 1 &hellip; 9:
printf(&quot;range 1 to 9\n&quot;);
break;
default:
printf(&quot;unexpected\n&quot;);
break;
}
</pre></div>

<a name="index-cdecl-attribute"></a>
<a name="index-stdcall-attribute"></a>
<a name="index-regparm-attribute"></a>
<a name="index-dllexport-attribute"></a>
</li><li> The keyword <code>__attribute__</code> is handled to specify variable or
function attributes. The following attributes are supported:
<ul>
<li> <code>aligned(n)</code>: align a variable or a structure field to n bytes
(must be a power of two).
</li><li> <code>packed</code>: force alignment of a variable or a structure field to
1.
</li><li> <code>section(name)</code>: generate function or data in assembly section
name (name is a string containing the section name) instead of the default
section.
</li><li> <code>unused</code>: specify that the variable or the function is unused.
</li><li> <code>cdecl</code>: use standard C calling convention (default).
</li><li> <code>stdcall</code>: use Pascal-like calling convention.
</li><li> <code>regparm(n)</code>: use fast i386 calling convention. <var>n</var> must be
between 1 and 3. The first <var>n</var> function parameters are respectively put in
registers <code>%eax</code>, <code>%edx</code> and <code>%ecx</code>.
</li><li> <code>dllexport</code>: export function from dll/executable (win32 only)
</li></ul>
<p>Here are some examples:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example"> int a __attribute__ ((aligned(8), section(&quot;.mysection&quot;)));
</pre></div>
<p>align variable <code>a</code> to 8 bytes and put it in section <code>.mysection</code>.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> int my_add(int a, int b) __attribute__ ((section(&quot;.mycodesection&quot;)))
{
return a + b;
}
</pre></div>
<p>generate function <code>my_add</code> in section <code>.mycodesection</code>.
</p>
</li><li> GNU style variadic macros:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> #define dprintf(fmt, args&hellip;) printf(fmt, ## args)
dprintf(&quot;no arg\n&quot;);
dprintf(&quot;one arg %d\n&quot;, 1);
</pre></div>
</li><li> <code>__FUNCTION__</code> is interpreted as C99 <code>__func__</code>
(so it has not exactly the same semantics as string literal GNUC
where it is a string literal).
</li><li> The <code>__alignof__</code> keyword can be used as <code>sizeof</code>
to get the alignment of a type or an expression.
</li><li> The <code>typeof(x)</code> returns the type of <code>x</code>.
<code>x</code> is an expression or a type.
</li><li> Computed gotos: <code>&amp;&amp;label</code> returns a pointer of type
<code>void *</code> on the goto label <code>label</code>. <code>goto *expr</code> can be
used to jump on the pointer resulting from <code>expr</code>.
</li><li> Inline assembly with asm instruction:
<a name="index-inline-assembly"></a>
<a name="index-assembly_002c-inline"></a>
<a name="index-_005f_005fasm_005f_005f"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">static inline void * my_memcpy(void * to, const void * from, size_t n)
{
int d0, d1, d2;
__asm__ __volatile__(
&quot;rep ; movsl\n\t&quot;

<a name="TinyCC-Assembler"></a>
<h2 class="chapter">4 TinyCC Assembler</h2>
<p>Since version 0.9.16, TinyCC integrates its own assembler. TinyCC
assembler supports a gas-like syntax (GNU assembler). You can
deactivate assembler support if you want a smaller TinyCC executable
(the C compiler does not rely on the assembler).
</p>
<p>TinyCC Assembler is used to handle files with <samp>.S</samp> (C
preprocessed assembler) and <samp>.s</samp> extensions. It is also used to
handle the GNU inline assembler with the <code>asm</code> keyword.
</p>
<a name="Syntax"></a>
<h3 class="section">4.1 Syntax</h3>
<p>TinyCC Assembler supports most of the gas syntax. The tokens are the
same as C.
</p>
<ul>
<li> C and C++ comments are supported.
</li><li> Identifiers are the same as C, so you cannot use &rsquo;.&rsquo; or &rsquo;$&rsquo;.
</li><li> Only 32 bit integer numbers are supported.
</li></ul>
<a name="Expressions"></a>
<h3 class="section">4.2 Expressions</h3>
<ul>
<li> Integers in decimal, octal and hexa are supported.
</li><li> Unary operators: +, -, ~.
</li><li> Binary operators in decreasing priority order:
<ol>
<li> *, /, %
</li><li> &amp;, |, ^
</li><li> +, -
</li></ol>
</li><li> A value is either an absolute number or a label plus an offset.
All operators accept absolute values except &rsquo;+&rsquo; and &rsquo;-&rsquo;. &rsquo;+&rsquo; or &rsquo;-&rsquo; can be
used to add an offset to a label. &rsquo;-&rsquo; supports two labels only if they
are the same or if they are both defined and in the same section.
</li></ul>
<a name="Labels"></a>
<h3 class="section">4.3 Labels</h3>
<ul>
<li> All labels are considered as local, except undefined ones.
</li><li> Numeric labels can be used as local <code>gas</code>-like labels.
They can be defined several times in the same source. Use &rsquo;b&rsquo;
(backward) or &rsquo;f&rsquo; (forward) as suffix to reference them:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"> 1:
jmp 1b /* jump to '1' label before */
jmp 1f /* jump to '1' label after */
1:

<a name="ELF-file-generation"></a>
<h3 class="section">5.1 ELF file generation</h3>
<a name="index-ELF"></a>
<p>TCC can directly output relocatable ELF files (object files),
executable ELF files and dynamic ELF libraries without relying on an
external linker.
</p>
<p>Dynamic ELF libraries can be output but the C compiler does not generate
position independent code (PIC). It means that the dynamic library
code generated by TCC cannot be factorized among processes yet.
</p>
<p>TCC linker eliminates unreferenced object code in libraries. A single pass is
done on the object and library list, so the order in which object files and
libraries are specified is important (same constraint as GNU ld). No grouping
options (<samp>--start-group</samp> and <samp>--end-group</samp>) are supported.
</p>
<a name="ELF-file-loader"></a>
<h3 class="section">5.2 ELF file loader</h3>
<p>TCC can load ELF object files, archives (.a files) and dynamic
libraries (.so).
</p>
<a name="PE_002di386-file-generation"></a>
<h3 class="section">5.3 PE-i386 file generation</h3>
<a name="index-PE_002di386"></a>
<p>TCC for Windows supports the native Win32 executable file format (PE-i386). It
generates EXE files (console and gui) and DLL files.
</p>
<p>For usage on Windows, see also tcc-win32.txt.
</p>
<a name="GNU-Linker-Scripts"></a>
<h3 class="section">5.4 GNU Linker Scripts</h3>

<a name="index-OUTPUT_005fFORMAT_002c-linker-command"></a>
<a name="index-TARGET_002c-linker-command"></a>
<p>Because on many Linux systems some dynamic libraries (such as
<samp>/usr/lib/libc.so</samp>) are in fact GNU ld link scripts (horrible!),
the TCC linker also supports a subset of GNU ld scripts.
</p>
<p>The <code>GROUP</code> and <code>FILE</code> commands are supported. <code>OUTPUT_FORMAT</code>
and <code>TARGET</code> are ignored.
</p>
<p>Example from <samp>/usr/lib/libc.so</samp>:
</p><div class="example">

<a name="File-reading"></a>
<h3 class="section">8.1 File reading</h3>
<p>The <code>BufferedFile</code> structure contains the context needed to read a
file, including the current line number. <code>tcc_open()</code> opens a new
file and <code>tcc_close()</code> closes it. <code>inp()</code> returns the next
character.
</p>
<a name="Lexer"></a>
<h3 class="section">8.2 Lexer</h3>
<p><code>next()</code> reads the next token in the current
file. <code>next_nomacro()</code> reads the next token without macro
expansion.
</p>
<p><code>tok</code> contains the current token (see <code>TOK_xxx</code>)
constants. Identifiers and keywords are also keywords. <code>tokc</code>
contains additional infos about the token (for example a constant value
if number or string token).
</p>
<a name="Parser"></a>
<h3 class="section">8.3 Parser</h3>
<p>The parser is hardcoded (yacc is not necessary). It does only one pass,
except:
</p>
<ul>
<li> For initialized arrays with unknown size, a first pass
is done to count the number of elements.
</li><li> For architectures where arguments are evaluated in
reverse order, a first pass is done to reverse the argument order.
</li></ul>
<a name="Types"></a>
<h3 class="section">8.4 Types</h3>
<p>The types are stored in a single &rsquo;int&rsquo; variable. It was chosen in the
first stages of development when tcc was much simpler. Now, it may not
be the best solution.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#define VT_INT 0 /* integer type */
#define VT_BYTE 1 /* signed byte type */
#define VT_SHORT 2 /* short type */
#define VT_VOID 3 /* void type */
#define VT_PTR 4 /* pointer */
#define VT_ENUM 5 /* enum definition */
#define VT_FUNC 6 /* function type */
#define VT_STRUCT 7 /* struct/union definition */
#define VT_FLOAT 8 /* IEEE float */
#define VT_DOUBLE 9 /* IEEE double */
#define VT_LDOUBLE 10 /* IEEE long double */
#define VT_BOOL 11 /* ISOC99 boolean type */
#define VT_LLONG 12 /* 64 bit integer */
#define VT_LONG 13 /* long integer (NEVER USED as type, only
during parsing) */
#define VT_BTYPE 0x000f /* mask for basic type */
#define VT_UNSIGNED 0x0010 /* unsigned type */
#define VT_ARRAY 0x0020 /* array type (also has VT_PTR) */
#define VT_VLA 0x20000 /* VLA type (also has VT_PTR and VT_ARRAY) */
#define VT_BITFIELD 0x0040 /* bitfield modifier */
#define VT_CONSTANT 0x0800 /* const modifier */
#define VT_VOLATILE 0x1000 /* volatile modifier */
#define VT_DEFSIGN 0x2000 /* signed type */
#define VT_STRUCT_SHIFT 18 /* structure/enum name shift (14 bits left) */
</pre></div>
<p>When a reference to another type is needed (for pointers, functions and
structures), the <code>32 - VT_STRUCT_SHIFT</code> high order bits are used to
store an identifier reference.
</p>
<p>The <code>VT_UNSIGNED</code> flag can be set for chars, shorts, ints and long
longs.
</p>
<p>Arrays are considered as pointers <code>VT_PTR</code> with the flag
<code>VT_ARRAY</code> set. Variable length arrays are considered as special
arrays and have flag <code>VT_VLA</code> set instead of <code>VT_ARRAY</code>.
</p>
<p>The <code>VT_BITFIELD</code> flag can be set for chars, shorts, ints and long
longs. If it is set, then the bitfield position is stored from bits
VT_STRUCT_SHIFT to VT_STRUCT_SHIFT + 5 and the bit field size is stored
from bits VT_STRUCT_SHIFT + 6 to VT_STRUCT_SHIFT + 11.
</p>
<p><code>VT_LONG</code> is never used except during parsing.
</p>
<p>During parsing, the storage of an object is also stored in the type
integer:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#define VT_EXTERN 0x00000080 /* extern definition */
#define VT_STATIC 0x00000100 /* static variable */

</pre></div>
<a name="Symbols"></a>
<h3 class="section">8.5 Symbols</h3>
<p>All symbols are stored in hashed symbol stacks. Each symbol stack
contains <code>Sym</code> structures.
</p>
<p><code>Sym.v</code> contains the symbol name (remember
an identifier is also a token, so a string is never necessary to store
it). <code>Sym.t</code> gives the type of the symbol. <code>Sym.r</code> is usually
the register in which the corresponding variable is stored. <code>Sym.c</code> is
usually a constant associated to the symbol like its address for normal
symbols, and the number of entries for symbols representing arrays.
Variable length array types use <code>Sym.c</code> as a location on the stack
which holds the runtime sizeof for the type.
</p>
<p>Four main symbol stacks are defined:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>define_stack</code></dt>
<dd><p>for the macros (<code>#define</code>s).
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>global_stack</code></dt>

</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>local_stack</code></dt>
<dd><p>for the local variables, functions and types.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>global_label_stack</code></dt>
<dd><p>for the local labels (for <code>goto</code>).
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>label_stack</code></dt>
<dd><p>for GCC block local labels (see the <code>__label__</code> keyword).
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p><code>sym_push()</code> is used to add a new symbol in the local symbol
stack. If no local symbol stack is active, it is added in the global
symbol stack.
</p>
<p><code>sym_pop(st,b)</code> pops symbols from the symbol stack <var>st</var> until
the symbol <var>b</var> is on the top of stack. If <var>b</var> is NULL, the stack
is emptied.
</p>
<p><code>sym_find(v)</code> return the symbol associated to the identifier
<var>v</var>. The local stack is searched first from top to bottom, then the
global stack.

<a name="index-code-generation"></a>
<a name="Introduction-2"></a>
<h4 class="subsection">8.7.1 Introduction</h4>
<p>The TCC code generator directly generates linked binary code in one
pass. It is rather unusual these days (see gcc for example which
generates text assembly), but it can be very fast and surprisingly
little complicated.
</p>
<p>The TCC code generator is register based. Optimization is only done at
the expression level. No intermediate representation of expression is
kept except the current values stored in the <em>value stack</em>.
</p>
<p>On x86, three temporary registers are used. When more registers are
needed, one register is spilled into a new temporary variable on the stack.
</p>
<a name="The-value-stack"></a>
<h4 class="subsection">8.7.2 The value stack</h4>
<a name="index-value-stack_002c-introduction"></a>
<p>When an expression is parsed, its value is pushed on the value stack
(<var>vstack</var>). The top of the value stack is <var>vtop</var>. Each value
stack entry is the structure <code>SValue</code>.
</p>
<p><code>SValue.t</code> is the type. <code>SValue.r</code> indicates how the value is
currently stored in the generated code. It is usually a CPU register
index (<code>REG_xxx</code> constants), but additional values and flags are
defined:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#define VT_CONST 0x00f0
#define VT_LLOCAL 0x00f1
#define VT_LOCAL 0x00f2
#define VT_CMP 0x00f3
#define VT_JMP 0x00f4
#define VT_JMPI 0x00f5
#define VT_LVAL 0x0100
#define VT_SYM 0x0200
#define VT_MUSTCAST 0x0400
#define VT_MUSTBOUND 0x0800
#define VT_BOUNDED 0x8000
#define VT_LVAL_BYTE 0x1000
#define VT_LVAL_SHORT 0x2000
#define VT_LVAL_UNSIGNED 0x4000
#define VT_LVAL_TYPE (VT_LVAL_BYTE | VT_LVAL_SHORT | VT_LVAL_UNSIGNED)
</pre></div>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>VT_CONST</code></dt>

<code>SValue.c</code>, depending on its type.

operators.

architecture-specific calling convention.

<h4 class="subsection">8.7.3 Manipulating the value stack</h4>
<a name="index-value-stack"></a>
<p><code>vsetc()</code> and <code>vset()</code> pushes a new value on the value
stack. If the previous <var>vtop</var> was stored in a very unsafe place(for
example in the CPU flags), then some code is generated to put the
previous <var>vtop</var> in a safe storage.
</p>
<p><code>vpop()</code> pops <var>vtop</var>. In some cases, it also generates cleanup
code (for example if stacked floating point registers are used as on
x86).
</p>
<p>The <code>gv(rc)</code> function generates code to evaluate <var>vtop</var> (the
top value of the stack) into registers. <var>rc</var> selects in which
register class the value should be put. <code>gv()</code> is the <em>most
important function</em> of the code generator.
</p>
<p><code>gv2()</code> is the same as <code>gv()</code> but for the top two stack
entries.

<p>Constant propagation is done for all operations. Multiplications and
divisions are optimized to shifts when appropriate. Comparison
operators are optimized by maintaining a special cache for the
processor flags. &amp;&amp;, || and ! are optimized by maintaining a special
&rsquo;jump target&rsquo; value. No other jump optimization is currently performed
because it would require to store the code in a more abstract fashion.
