Hello, everyone : I am learning compiler techniques. I want a live example. I also want to do my contributions to open source. So I turn to gcc.
Last year I have added some instruction templates to one specific gcc backend as a task in work. I have read a little of "Using and Porting GCC". But still, I cannot manage the source code of gcc. I don't know how to start reading it. My plan is: reading the book "Advanced Compiler Design and Implementation" and reading the corresponding code in gcc at the same time. But I even cannot find the "corresponding code" ( TT ) Last night I want to read the code of symbol table used in gcc, I searched in google, I greped in the source code. At last, I still have no idea where those code is. I searched in google trying to find an article describing gcc's source code, and I cannot find anything valuable. Any advice to be invovled in development of gcc ? Thank you very much. Sorry for disturbing. -- Yours Alex L.K
