Herman Venter - The Common Compiler Infrastruture goes Open Source
Description
Herman Venter announces the Common Compiler Infrastructure (CCI) as an
open source project
on codeplex! CCI is a set of tools and components that are useful to build compilers: readers and writers for MSIL and symbol files, and more.
You’ve may have heard and probably used different incarnations of CCI in the past: the FxCop introspection engine,
ILMerge,
Spec# or Code
Contracts are using CCI in many ways. Now, you can use it too: just sync the sources, build it, tweak it, etc… It’s all there on
codeplex at
Enjoy!
ps: Sorry for the low quality of the sound, my new microphone is on it's way...

What's the difference between CCI and Phoenix SDK ? (It was also a compiler/runtime tool optimizer)
-
joechung I hope somebody is getting video of the talks at the Lang.NET Symposium happening this week. -
zoobar I thought he was going to show all the herms he invented.

Charles Indeed. We have some great content from Lang .NET that will air in a few weeks.

akidan This is some awesome news!! -
Herman Venter Phoenix and CCI certainly have areas of overlap and it is not always easy to decide when to use which.
I view Phoenix as a large and somewhat complicated tool kit that is primarily concerned with compiling unmanaged C/C++ to optimal machine code. Everything else is secondary and this has an impact on the usability of Phoenix for compiler front-end scenarios and simple MSIL production and consumption.
Use Phoenix when you are a Rocket Scientist and need to leverage the extensive support for control flow graphs, SSA and so on.
