Source Release

Latest Release

Dependencies: Java, Nasm, Gcc, M4 macro processor if you are doing source development work.

Create a directory for Vector Pascal and place the src.jar file in this directory. then unpack the archive using the command

jar -xf src.jar

Then type

make install.jar

to create the installation jar file. You then proceed as for the binary install procedure using the install.jar file you have created. Since the works of the compiler are all in Java and since the C code of the run-time library is portable, the same version of the source will work under both Windows and Linux. The source version contains code under development for Opteron, Playstation and Mac G4 architectures. Any assistance in developing these would be welcome.
