Open Source Java Compilers

The SrcML Framework allows converting Sourcecode to a XML representation on which tools can then be used to deduce statical data for analyzing and visualizing the initial source. It also provides easy ways to write programs which modify other programs.

JSim8086 is platform-independent Assembly Language Simulator of the Intel 8086 CPU. It was designed to be a learning tool (CAL) for first year Computing students who are learning Computer Systems Organisation and Assembly Programming.

JPIE is an implementation of an Open Source Java to Prolog/Prolog to Java interoperability mecanism based on the Java VM.

NXTAssembler is an assembler for the Lego Mindstorms NXT.

PHDL is an HDL that functions as an alternative to mainstream graphical schematic capture tools. The language is compiled into a pcb netlist which can then be imported into a layout tool. We are currently on version 2.1 of the tool. We have created an eclipse plugin version of the tool as well as a standalone command-line based version. Both function identically and output a netlist that can be imported into a pcb layout tool. VHDL revolutionized how FPGA designs and digital logic circuits have been designed and captured and overcame many of the difficulties associated with the use of schematic editing tools. We believe the use of an HDL is also the way of the future when it comes to PCB design. The PHDL compiler automatically supports the output of PADS and Eagle netlists, and through extending a simple java class, users can generate a netlist in practically any format required by their choice of a layout tool.

UfakPython is a small subset of Python programming language, for small embedded devices, like PICs. UfakPython sources are translated to C by UfakPython Compiler. Small Device C Compiler can then compile the C outputs to the target device's codes.

Visai Neri is an attempt to syntactically parse Natural Languages in general and Tamil in particular. To this end, we have developed an application using JavaCC to parse Venpa poetry after writing the grammar in BNF. Vision: complete Tamil grammar in

Chasm-interop is a set of tools that parses C++ and Fortran 90 source files and automatically generates bridging code to provide for seamless language interoperability.

The compilerMonitor persists a record of all javac error messages and the sources that caused/fixed the errors. It is a CAUSE (computer-aided usability engineering) tool that analyzes interaction between a developer and the compiler.

{sets} is a lightweight constraint programming language. The uniqueness of {sets}, is that it uses ROBDD ( Reduced Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams ) to represent and solve constraints.
