LLVM backend for BlackBox?

Post by Romiras »

Do you think it's feasible to write LLVM back-end for BlackBox? Then maintain back-end after being written?

Are any LLVM back-end for compilers of Oberon family?

John Gough has considered to port the Gardens Point Component Pascal (GPCP) compiler to LLVM.
See https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/GPC ... ssages/644

I don't know the current state of his efforts. The GPCP discussion group on Yahoo has been rather quiet since last summer.
