A fork of jhc. And also a Haskell compiler.

This project is founded by Metasepi Project.

$ git clone git://github.com/ajhc/ajhc.git
$ cd ajhc
$ git checkout arafura
$ autoreconf -i
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

First, you should use the arafura branch, rather than master branch.

• master branch: Do not touch me, mirror of jhc's darcs repository.
• arafura branch: For developing Ajhc.

You should send patch to jhc, if testing on Ajhc is good.

$ darcs get http://repetae.net/repos/jhc
$ cd jhc/
$ patch -p1 < ~/yourfile.patch
$ darcs record -a
$ darcs send

The command darcs send sends email the patch to jhc author (= John Meacham).

Perhaps you can get internal overview with following compile flow image:

• Benchmark (speed, memory size, compare with eLua/mruby/.NET Micro Framework)
• No more depend on Perl (LWP and YAML).
• Port Haskell libraries on haskell-platform to Ajhc.
• Understand jhc's region inference.
• Play with Google Native Client. https://developers.google.com/native-client/
• Write Linux kernel driver with Haskell.
• Get smaller RTS. Benchmark the RTS for running on custom FPGA CPU.
• Start rewritng NetBSD kernel with Ajhc.
