Implementing Continuation based language in GCC

TL;DR

This paper presents a new implementation of a continuation-based C language compiler integrated with GCC 4.2.3, enabling seamless mixing of continuation-based programming with standard C across multiple architectures.

Contribution

It introduces a GCC-based CbC compiler that supports full C capabilities, allowing mixed programming paradigms and broad architecture compatibility.

Findings

Successful implementation on various architectures

Enabling mixed C and CbC programming

Demonstrated practical experiments with CbC

Abstract

We have implemented C like Continuation based programming language. Continuation based C, CbC was implemented using micro-C on various architecture, and we have tried several CbC programming experiments. Here we report new implementation of CbC compiler based on GCC 4.2.3. Since it contains full C capability, we can use CbC and C in a mixture.
