mikeakohn / java_grinder Goto Github PK

I'm led hear because java_grinder for the Parallax Propeller just got a mention on the Parallax forums. For the first time I think:
http://forums.parallax.com/discussion/168101/propeller-java. An impressive piece of work.

I don't know if you are aware but there is a way to have a very small, tight, PASM loop execute large PASM code from shared memory. Basically it fetches instructions from shared memory, one at a time, and executes them in COG. This is known in the Propeller world as LMM mode. Large Memory Model.

The C compilers for the Propeller generate LMM code so as to allow for reasonably sized programs. Despite the fetch, execute loop they do run at a usable speed. They can also, optionally, generate COG code of course.

GCC is extra clever optimization in that it has a thing called fcache. It will compile tight C loops into COG code and load that into into cog at run time. With fcache your Mandlebrot demo would probably run as fast in LMM mode as it does all from COG!

Anyway, just thought you like a heads up on the Parallax forum post and wondered if you would be interested in getting java_grinder to generate LMM code.

Hi,

I would like to know if exist an Example using TI84 calculator

This is an issue to track the progress for java_grinder on x86_64

• registers
• data types/sizes
• code generation
• enabling support

Please edit as progress continues, and feel free to add more goals.

Does exist any plan to compile for Arduino One?

Hello!

I found this project from https://www.mikekohn.net/micro/riscv_fpga.php

Could you please add information about the license of this repository — is it allowed to copy, change and use the code in any purpose?
It would be great to see any popular open source license.

Hi,

trying to grind a
Test2CPC.zip

** String name = ""; **

I get "Opcode (187) 'new' unimplemented"

Trying ** String name = NULL; **

it states

"Opcode (1) 'aconst_null' unimplemented"

Hi, I would like to know if exist some support for the IOT Board: ESP8266
