Description : C/C++ interpreter
>From the web site:
CINT covers most of ANSI C and ISO C++. A CINT script can call
compiled classes/functions and compiled code can make callbacks to
CINT interpreted functions. Utilities like makecint and rootcint
automate the process of embedding compiled C/C++ library code as
shared objects (as Dynamic Link Library, DLL, or shared library,
.so). Source files and shared objects can be dynamically
loaded/unloaded without stopping the CINT process. CINT offers a gdb
like debugging environment for interpreted programs.
Comments:
there is currently a version of CINT available as part of the
root-system-bin binaries, but
1) It is not clear how well maintained that is.
2) A quick and dirty package of standalone CINT I made is 35M
installed, versus 100M+ for root-system-bin.
If somebody is going to maintain root-system, it would make sense to
split out the CINT package if possible.
I would be willing to help maintain this package.
