What Fortran compilers are there in this day and age, and which would you recommend? Please list the version of Fortran it supports, the platform it works on (e.g. *nix / Windows), and whether it cost money. (Standard OS one per answer etc.) ...
I've been digging through some parts of the Linux kernel, and found calls like this: if (unlikely(fd < 0)) { /* Do something */ } or if (likely(!err)) { /* Do something */ } I've found the definition of them: #define likely(x) __builtin_expect((x),1) #define unlikely(x) __builtin_expect((x),0) I know that they ...
Hello everyone, just a quick question: I am a CS undergrad and have only had experience with the Eclipse, and Net Beans IDEs. I have recently acquired a Macbook and was wanting to recompile a recent school project in Xcode just to test it out. Right after the line where I declare a new instance of an ArrayList: dictionary = new Arra...
I've googled the hell out of it, and it seems like there is no way to install gcc on OS X without installing Xcode (which takes at leats 1.5GB of space). All I need is gcc and none of the other junk that comes with Xcode. And at this point, I'll take any other kind of C compiler. I know I could simply install Xcode, but that is beside t...
I know C is not a very popular language but I need it for school. I'm fine working on Linux using gcc as my C compiler but would like a Windows solution. Any ideas? I've looked at Dev-C++ from Bloodshed but looking for more options. ...
What would be a good (free) Ada IDE for either Linux or Windows? ...
I couldn't find any useful information on Microsoft's site, so here is the question: has the compiler in Visual C++ 2008 been improved significantly since the 2005 version? I'm especially looking for better optimization. ...
How can I setup a shared ccache without falling into a permissions problem? I would like to run a nightly or CI build with latest changes and share all created binaries throughout the R&D using a large ccache repository. ...
i need to know where i can get free version of C,C++ compilers for windows vista.many of the versions i tried are not working in fullscreen mode. ...
I have a ASP.NET application running on a remote web server and I just started getting this error: Method not found: 'Void System.Collections.Generic.ICollection`1..ctor()'. I disassembled the code in the DLL and it seems like the compiler is incorrectly optimizing the code. (Note that Set is a class that implements a set of unique o...
Is there a way to know and output the stack size needed by a function at compile time in C ? Here is what I would like to know : Let's take some function : void foo(int a) { char c[5]; char * s; //do something return; } When compiling this function, I would like to know how much stack space it will consume whent it is...
I wrote some code with a lot of recursion, that takes quite a bit of time to complete. Whenever I "pause" the run to look at what's going on I get: Cannot evaluate expression because the code of the current method is optimized. I think I understand what that means. However, what puzzles me is that after I hit step, the cod...
I'd love to figure it out myself but I was wondering roughly what's the algorithm for converting a function with yield statements into a state machine for an enumerator? For example how does C# turn this: IEnumerator<string> strings(IEnumerable<string> args) { IEnumerator<string> enumerator2 = getAnotherEnumerator(); foreach(va...
While developing a C++ application, I had to use a 3rd party library which produced a huge amount of warnings related with a harmless #pragma directive being used. ../File.hpp:1: warning: ignoring #pragma ident In file included from ../File2.hpp:47, from ../File3.hpp:57, from File4.h:49, Is it possibl...
Hi I was looking into Ruby to actionscript 3 bytecode compilers and found a mention of a project called Red Sun but can find very little information on it. So my Question is ... what tools are available to convert Ruby source into AS3 bytecode ...
A quick Google search of this issue shows it's common, I just can't for the life of me figure out the solution in my case. I have a straight forward install of wxWidgets 2.8.8 for Windows straight from the wxWidgets website. Whenever I try to compile anything (such as the sample app described in "First Programs for wxWidgets" - http://...
I have a lot of nice MATLAB code that runs too slowly and would be a pain to write over in C. The MATLAB compiler for C does not seem to help much, if at all. Should it be speeding execution up more? Am I screwed? ...
It sounds like Mozilla is having good luck improving JavaScript performance with TraceMonkey. See also Andreas Gal's paper on Trace Trees. Are these improvements available to other interpreters/compilers and if so, does this mean we'll see a cascade of improvements in other interpreted languages? ...
I would like to distribute my .NET programs without the .NET framework. Is it possible to compile a .NET program to machine code? ...
My application is generating different floating point values when I compile it in release mode and in debug mode. The only reason that I found out is I save a binary trace log and the one from the release build is ever so slightly off from the debug build, it looks like the bottom two bits of the 32 bit float values are different about 1...
