LemonBoy 5ab5de89c0 New @export() handling
Use a struct as second parameter to be future proof (and also allows to
specify default values for the parameters)

Closes #2679 as it was just a matter of a few lines of code.

ZIG

A general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

Resources

Building from Source

Build Status

Note that you can download a binary of master branch.

Stage 1: Build Zig from C++ Source Code

Dependencies

POSIX
  • cmake >= 2.8.5
  • gcc >= 5.0.0 or clang >= 3.6.0
  • LLVM, Clang, LLD development libraries == 9.x, compiled with the same gcc or clang version above
Windows
  • cmake >= 3.15.3
  • Microsoft Visual Studio. Supported versions:
    • 2015 (version 14)
    • 2017 (version 15.8)
    • 2019 (version 16)
  • LLVM, Clang, LLD development libraries == 9.x

Instructions

POSIX
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make install
MacOS
brew install cmake llvm@9
brew outdated llvm@9 || brew upgrade llvm@9
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$(brew --prefix llvm)
make install
Windows

Stage 2: Build Self-Hosted Zig from Zig Source Code

Note: Stage 2 compiler is not complete. Beta users of Zig should use the Stage 1 compiler for now.

Dependencies are the same as Stage 1, except now you can use stage 1 to compile Zig code.

bin/zig build --prefix $(pwd)/stage2

This produces ./stage2/bin/zig which can be used for testing and development. Once it is feature complete, it will be used to build stage 3 - the final compiler binary.

Stage 3: Rebuild Self-Hosted Zig Using the Self-Hosted Compiler

Note: Stage 2 compiler is not yet able to build Stage 3. Building Stage 3 is not yet supported.

Once the self-hosted compiler can build itself, this will be the actual compiler binary that we will install to the system. Until then, users should use stage 1.

Debug / Development Build

./stage2/bin/zig build --prefix $(pwd)/stage3

Release / Install Build

./stage2/bin/zig build install -Drelease
