I was not thinking in use clan as an interpreter, but using it to:<br><br>- making refactoring in the game code<br>- show, in the IDE, information about any selected token (type, name, ...) and the possibility to change the properties in a grid control (even for functions)<br>- compiles the final game code and generates the llvm bitcode<br><br>The only use I can see for interpretation in this context, is to debug the game. But, is this not a feature provided by the llvm (may be in future versions)?<br><br>Regards,<br>Makslane<br><br><br><br>> Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2008 12:48:29 -0800<br>> From: akyrtzi@gmail.com<br>> To: clattner@apple.com<br>> CC: makslane@hotmail.com; cfe-dev@cs.uiuc.edu<br>> Subject: Re: [cfe-dev] Help request for a game IDE project<br>> <br>> Chris Lattner wrote:<br>> ><br>> > This is definitely a direction that we'd like to go with clang.
