# Just a C Compiler (jcc)
C Compiler.
Can use either the custom backend or llvm.
The custom backend is located in [jb/](jb/) which was previously a separate project([jb](https://github.com/BrandonKi/just-another-backend)).
## Examples
WIP, can currently handle a decent amount of stuff (functions, pointers, if/else, for, do/while, etc.). It even supports a decent amount of preprocessor features so far.
Take a look in the [tests/](tests/) directory or commit history for a fuller picture of how much is supported.
The following is a very small example that correctly runs/compiles.
```c
#include
extern int printf(char*);
bool isPerfect(int num) {
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < num; i++) {
if (num % i == 0) {
sum += i;
}
}
return sum == num;
}
int main() {
printf("Hello From JCC!");
return isPerfect(28); // returns 1
}
```

## Build
Replace `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` with your `path/to/llvm`
## Build(Visual Studio)
```cmake
cmake "-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:STRING=C:/Program Files/llvm-16.0.6-windows-amd64-msvc16-msvcrt-dbg" -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS:BOOL=TRUE -B/build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022"
```
## Build(Clang+Ninja)
```cmake
cmake "-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:STRING=C:/Program Files/llvm-16.0.6-windows-amd64-msvc16-msvcrt-dbg" -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS:BOOL=TRUE -B/build -GNinja
```
