Produce CIL from C/C++

[larry_rix]

Does anyone know how to produce CIL from C/C++ source code files?

Also, is CIL a single file or collection of files? Is there a root?

To generate CIL ( Microsoft .Net Framework) you could use Visual Studio
2005 to 2010.
Create a "Visual C++" / "CLR" project.
The language is called C++/CLI.

Fernando.

Hello Fernando!
Thank you for responding. I think the following documentation agrees with you. There appears to be a step-by-step:
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~necula/cil/
Specifically, look to the Section 2 - Installation. There is refers to building the cilly.exe using Visual Studio.
However, I am now on Linux, but do not see any Linux instructions. I will keep looking. If nothing turns up, then I will complete the process in Windows first to ensure it at least works and I am able to get to the CIL for processing by the C2Eif from Marco Trudel.
Thanks again!Larry Rix

Hehehe... Fernando talks about CIL [1] while Larry is talking about CIL
[2]. These are two completely different things.
Larry, I would suggest to ask questions about CIL on the CIL users
mailinglist [3], not on the Eiffel users mailinglist. But the CIL
documentation is actually quite good, I guess it already explains how to
use CIL. But since you want to use C2Eif [4], maybe it's website already
explains how to use CIL. Well, ok, I know it does ;-) The manual section
says:
# 1. Preprocess your C project with CIL.
# This is usually as simple as
# configure; make CC="cilly --merge --save-temps"
# but sometimes you have to help CIL a little. Running make on a
# project foo should give you a foo binary (or foo.a library) and
# the merged C file foo.cil.c.

Cheers!
Marco

LOL ... Marco you've made me laugh all morning!
Yes, after some more research, I was concluding that CIL [1] and CIL [2] were indeed two completely different animals. :-)
Thank you for the excellent feedback and pointers. I will follow up with them this evening when I get back to my home-development machine.
Have a super day!Larry

I think you could use http://monodevelop.com/ on Linux.
I don't know if supports C++/CLI
Any questions feel free to ask me.

Regards,
Fernando.

Hehehe, I suspected that perhaps we were talking about different things.
Thanks for the clarification!
