Pascal-F, A portable Fortran-based Pascal Compiler
Joseph Manning · cIRcle (University of British Columbia) · 2010
This thesis examines the subject of compiler portability and describes a project which adopts one particular approach to achieving this goal: generate code in an existing widely-implemented language as output from the compiler. Pascal-F translates Pascal to F-code, an intermediate language which can be processed directly by any Standard FORTRAN compiler. The design of the F-code machine is treated in detail, and problems with the use of FORTRAN as a target language are discussed.
