Hi All,
It has been awhile since i have posted here , anyway , i came back with my new project "Sphinx C--Builder"
as all of you know that , Sphinx C-- is and always will be my best programming language. So i combined it with c++Builder 2009.
this ammazing mix borns "Sphinx C--Builder" , ofcourse jwasm included with that mix.
of course there is no VCL of C++Builder , just like bc5.5 with delphi compiler.
it is under testing now.
here is a Entry point Example
=====================
simple.asm file ,will compiled automatically with jwasm
.386
.MODEL FLAT , c
GetModuleHandle equ GetModuleHandleA
extrn GetModuleHandle:near
.code
assume es:nothing, ss:nothing, ds:nothing, fs:nothing, gs:nothing
public start
start:
push 0
call GetModuleHandle
ret
end start
Entrypoint.c-- file

//
// tell c--Builder to use simple.asm
// code as a startup code.
// later you can call it from main function.
// c--Builder will use that startup code found in
// startUp folder so you do not have to put it's path
//
#startupcode "simple.asm"
#pragma linker kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib
// tell c--Builder the declaration of startup procedure
extern long cdecl start();
long hInstance;
main()
{
// call the Init code from simple.asm
// that in startUp folder
hInstance = start();
MessageBox(0,"main function is the entry point \n\n for console mode ","Entry point",0);
}
I will post beta version sooner.
Enjoy.
Hi Emil,
Many years ago, I tried C--. Looks like an interesting alternative for C for doing system programming.
1. Is the compiler still under development?
2. The 'official' link: http://c--sphinx.narod.ru/indexe.htm seems to be dead. Where can I find the compiler now?

1. Is the compiler still under development?
No , there is no activity since 2007 , so that i am tring to bring life to it by mixing it with strong c++builder2009.

try this link http://www.sheker.chat.ru/index_e.htm (http://www.sheker.chat.ru/index_e.htm)
my project still under construction, hope i can post a soild thing sooner.
Hi Emil,
The source code for Sphinx C-- has been released. You can find it here:
https://github.com/jossk/c--sphinx (https://github.com/jossk/c--sphinx)
Maybe you can make a fork and continue development.
The mirror of the original site is still availble. You can find it here:

thank you Georg for that great information , i will check it out.
Hi Emil,
Sphinx-C-- is used by the Kolibri OS development team since it can output Menuet executables. See their code in the cmm directory here:
http://websvn.kolibrios.org/listing.php?repname=Kolibri+OS&path=%2Fprograms%2Fcmm%2F&#abf1c4e809912c8e0dc9c47ab4528b257 (http://websvn.kolibrios.org/listing.php?repname=Kolibri+OS&path=%2Fprograms%2Fcmm%2F&#abf1c4e809912c8e0dc9c47ab4528b257)
However, this code will run with the Kolibri OS only.

The Ziron compiler looks similar to Sphinx C-- :
http://www.codeziron.com/
thanks again Georg.
thanks Vortex for that notifcation, there was version Ziron1 and now not completed Ziron2.
in my C--Builder , it allow's use to include jasm & asm files , pas files , c++Builder files , omf obj files , omf lib files , bpi files ,ofcourse c-- files .
C--Builder will compile asm file extension with tasm.exe , .jasm with JWasm , .pas with dcc32.exe , .c & .cpp with bcc32.exe , .cmm with pure SphinxC-- , .c-- will included as usual , obj lib & bpi files will pass to ilink32.exe.
for Mr. Vortex i was thinking to add Ziron1 files to C--Builder so that .zir extesion will compile with Ziron.exe then linked later.
for Mr. Georg , Although SphinxC-- is open source now i will go on my project , so i think there will no change with c-- , may be later C--Builder version.
Hi all
here is my first development of SphinxC-- it self.
with the include path dirctive you can put the '$' in the first char of pathstring then SphinxC-- will automatically replace it with the main current directury.
here is example showing you the idea
/*************************************
* Sphinx C--Builder *
* *
* includepath Example *
* *
* by Emil_halim *
* *
*************************************/
#pragma option w32c //create Windows console EXE.
#pragma option OS //speed optimization
#jumptomain NONE //just jump to main function
// $ will replaced with SphinxC-- main path
#includepath "$\winlib"
#include <windows.h>
main()
{
MessageBox(0,"SphinxC-- Extension is so good","",0);
}
Hi Emil,
please sign in into Github and click on the fork button on Sphinx C-- to make your changes public so one could try them out.

Hi all
after many tries to modefing SphinxC source code , i gave up.
any way i found smallerC code that is a simple & small C compiler , so i have started to add some features of SphinxC.
to make it easier to keep track of my changes , i begin my code with the term "Emil Stuff" and end it with term "end Emil stuff".
it is no completed yet , but if you want to contribute you can do it with me.
i will post it with source code in new topic.
thanks
Hi Emil,
What are the new features planned for Sphinx C?
EDIT : Sorry, I missed your other thread. It's OK.
Hi Vortex,
never mind , you are welcome.
