Lightweight Modular Staging (LMS) is a runtime code generation approach. This framework, LMS-Core, provides a library of core components for building high performance code generators and embedded compilers in Scala.

Closely related projects are Delite, a framework for heterogeneous parallel domain specific languages (DSLs), and Scala-Virtualized, a set of minimal extensions to the Scala compiler to make embedding DSLs more seamless.

NOTE:

This is branch macro-trans. It uses an unmodified Scala 2.11 compiler and a set of macros to virtualize conditionals, variables, etc.

All of this is still experimental.

• Get and install the Scala-Virtualized macros:

  • git clone -b scala-virtualized https://github.com/scala-lms/summer-of-lms-2014.git scala-virtualized
  • cd scala-virtualized; sbt publish-local

• See here for the diff to develop:

  • compare/develop...macro-trans

Background:

• LMS website

• LMS paper

• Delite website

• Scala-Virtualized wiki

How to build:

1. Install the SBT build tool.

2. Run sbt test to run the test suite.

3. Run sbt publish-local to install LMS-Core for use in other projects.
