GCC

Keywords: Compilation - Polyhedral compilation

Functional Description

The GNU Compiler Collection includes front ends for C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran, Java, Ada, and Go, as well as libraries for these languages (libstdc++, libgcj,...). GCC was originally written as the compiler for the GNU operating system. The GNU system was developed to be 100% free software, free in the sense that it respects the user's freedom.

The emphasis as now moved towards LLVM and its Polly framework for polyhedral compilation.
