Language chosen


Implemented in C, compiler for C.  I started off with a complete ANSI C grammar and found out it was not a wise thing to do, with the amount of work required.  Nevertheless the Syntax Tree is created for most of the ANSI C syntax.  Essentially it's a subset of C which I can't clearly define, as I dropped things where convenient (for example, array initializers, int a[5] = { foo, bar, ... }; is dropped.

Otherwise for, while loops, if statements, etc supported as well as unions, structs, arrays, to the IR level.  Assembly is generated only for very basic things unfortunately.
