资源说明：A virtual machine (and eventually language) designed around the concept of continuations (called here Channels) as the central object type. It's a little bit crazy in pretty much every way.
Channel9 -------- Channel9 is a multilanguage VM designed for dynamic languages to be built on. What separates it from most other similar endeavors is the flexibility of the runtime in terms of execution flow. The VM allows the language implementation to save execution state through continuations in order to allow it to control its threading model, error model, etc. Moreover it does not require a linear stack at all, so it's a good basis to experiment with execution models in general. Although it is a stack-based VM, the stack is local only to the executing method. For more information, please check out the documentation in the doc dir (TODO: when there is some...). Dependencies ------------ You need to have the following things installed and available to build and run channel9: * CMake (apt-get install cmake) * GCC or clang (apt-get install build-essentials) * libffi (apt-get install libffi-dev) * libonig (apt-get install libonig-dev) * Ruby (apt-get install ruby or get RVM) * The bundler gem for ruby (gem install bundler) If you want to run the channel9.rb test suite you will probably also want to have an rvm install, since it uses rvm to ensure that it's testing against the correct version of ruby (1.8.7). Building -------- You will need to have cmake, relatively modern gcc, and a ruby install with bundler in order to build Channel9. You can follow the following steps to build it: > git clone git://github.com/stormbrew/channel9.git > cd channel9 > bundle install > mkdir build > cd build > cmake .. > make OSX Troubleshooting ------------------- You can install install the dependencies using homebrew via: > brew install libffi oniguruma pkg-config Build running `make` you'll want to run: > export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$(brew --prefix libffi)/lib/pkgconfig/":$PKG_CONFIG_PATH Consider exporting this automatically (e.g. in your .bash_profile or .zshrc). Running ------- Assuming that was successful, you can use the generated bin/c9 exe to run some bytecode files: > bin/c9 ../samples/gcd.c9b Channel9.rb ----------- The work in progress ruby VM should also have build, you can do the following to try it out: > bin/c9 ../environments/channel9.rb/simple_tests/001.math.rb Debugging --------- You can pass flags to CMake to make it build a more debugger-friendly VM: > cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ../channel9 Or a more valgrindable VM: > cmake -DENABLE_VALGRIND ../channel9 Or you can set trace levels (SPAM, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, CRIT, or OFF) for the four trace facilities (GENERAL, VM, ALLOC, and GC): > cmake -DTRACE_LEVEL_GC=INFO -DTRACE_LEVEL_VM=OFF -DTRACE_LEVEL_GENERAL=WARN Note: They all default to off, and you need to pass -TT to bin/c9 to enable tracing at startup. -T will advise the environment to trace after it has loaded itself (thus not spamming you with noise while it boots up). Or you can combine any set of those.
