摘要

Cint是C编程语言的一种解释系统。像大多数解释系统一样,它提供“加载并运行”类型的执行以及增强的调试和性能分析工具。翻译由两个阶段组成——翻译者和口译员。转换器将源程序编译成虚拟机的代码。然后解释器加载并执行这段代码。虽然提供与传统口译员类似的服务,但Cint在两个重要方面与传统口译员不同。首先,许多解释器使用的虚拟机语言相当庞大;操作100到200次的机器很常见。相比之下,Cint的虚拟机只有63个操作。其次,为了达到可接受的执行速度,解释器通常用主机的汇编语言实现。然而,Cint完全是用C编写的,因此是可移植的。事实上,它已经运输到四个机器没有修改。尽管虚拟机语言和高级语言实现非常紧凑,但Cint的执行速度与其他解释器相当。本文介绍了虚拟机的设计、解释器的实现以及系统的性能。

Cint: a RISC interpreter for the C programming language
Cint is an interpretation system for the C programming language. Like most interpretation systems, it provides "load and go" type execution as well as enhanced debugging and performance analysis tools. Cint consists of two phases--a translator and an interpreter. The translator compiles the source program into code for a virtual machine. The interpreter then loads and executes this code. While providing services similar to traditional interpreters, Cint differs from them in two important ways. First, the virtual machine languages used by many interpreters are quite large; machines with 100 to 200 operations are common. In contrast, Cint's virtual machine has only 63 operations. Second, to achieve acceptable execution speeds, interpreters are often implemented in the assembly language of the host machine. Cint, however, is written entirely in C and is therefore portable. In fact, it has been transported to four machines without modification. Despite the compact size of the virtual machine language and the high-level language implementation, Cint's execution speed is comparable to that of other interpreters. This paper describes the design of the virtual machine, the implementation of the interpreter, and the performance of the system.
