| # $Id$
 | |
| 
 | |
| This directory contains the sources of the EM interpreter. A parallel
 | |
| directory contains the manual page and the documentation.  Two types of
 | |
| interpreters can be generated.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Normal Version
 | |
| A call to  make  will result in the generation of an interpreter,  int.  This
 | |
| interpreter will do full checking and can do logging on request.  It is the
 | |
| normal interpreter to be used for software checking and grooming.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Fast Version
 | |
| If the interpreter is used for the purpose of running programs rather than for
 | |
| testing them, a considerably faster version can be generated by undefining the
 | |
| macro   LOGGING   in the include file   logging.h .  This interpreter will
 | |
| still give some warnings: about bad trap numbers, unimplemented system calls
 | |
| and the occurrence of traps.
 | |
| 
 | |
| There are a small number of compile-time flags, each in a separate file:
 | |
| 	loggin.h	- distinguishes between normal and fast version
 | |
| 	debug.h		- ignore
 | |
| 	segcheck.h	- ignore
 | |
| 	sysidf.h	- define the approrpiate system name
 | |
| 	v7ioctl.h	- define if ioctl requests should conform to UNIX V7
 | |
| 	nofloat.h	- define if the C compiler used has no floating point
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| There are two subdirectories:
 | |
| 	switch		- generates opcode-analysing switches
 | |
| 	test		- contains testprograms
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Installation note:
 | |
| The file do_fpar.c (do floating point arithmetic) contains a macro  MAXDOUBLE
 | |
| which defines the largest possible double on the present machine. It is set to
 | |
| 99.e999, which may not be acceptable to your compiler. Adjust as necessary.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Note:
 | |
| This interpreter assumes that the  char  in the C compiler used to translate
 | |
| the interpreter, is a signed char.  It is not impossible to adapt the
 | |
| interpreter to unsigned chars, but it is not trivial.
