CJIT - C, Just In Time!
Published on December 02, 2024 at 12:04AM
Long-time Slashdot reader jaromil writes: As a fun project, we hacked together a C interpreter (based on Tiny C Compiler) that compiles C code in-memory and runs it live. CJIT today is a 2MB executable that can do a lot, including call functions from any installed library on Linux, Windows, and MacOSX. Slashdot reader oliwer points out "they are also including a REPL, which could be interesting." And the CJIT web page promises there's "no EULA to sign, no IDE to install... 100% Free and open source!" It also says the project was inspired by Terry Davis (TempleOS) and Fabrice Bellard (Tiny C Compiler).
