Tue Jan 31 18:36:06 2006 GMT: Google Compiler
I just noticed that Google is looking for compiler engineers to work on optimizations and static code analysis. I hope they will get the overall architecture (on the static analysis part) right, which basically means to plug in some scripting language (preferably Python) into the compiler as a new back-end.
In fact, I have been thinking about doing this with the OpenWatcom compiler, but it's definitely quite a big project to get it working. On the other hand it would greatly simplify writing static analysis checks.
Mon Jan 30 19:06:53 2006 GMT: OpenWatcom 1.4
OpenWatcom 1.4 has already been released in December 2005 and now has also been mentioned on the Inquirer.
Unfortunately, I haven't had much time to work on the OpenWatcom C++ compiler recently, but I have been thinking a bit about how explicit specification of function template arguments can be implemented. Although it appears to be a small feature, it requires some changes to the internals of the C++ parser (in particular, symbol lookup will have to be done much earlier in the parsing process).
