1. Is it possible to provide an Highlevel C backend for the GCC? 2. Which level is most suitable level to generate C from (not the initial source code level, of course ;-)) - RTL, GIMPLE, GENERIC? 3. Are there any attempts to provide a C backend, so far?
1. Yes. And no. It can be written but such a backend would never be acceptable for inclusion in GCC. 2. Probably GIMPLE, but you can't express all of GIMPLE in ANSI C (with GCC extensions you can probably express most of it though). 3. Several such attempts exist or have existed in the past. Gr. Steven
