Kite Programming Language

Long overdue update!

Written by Mooneer Salem on Saturday 11th of June, 2011 in General

Hi everyone! I know I haven’t updated in a while, but I’ve had life go on since my last update. I was able to get back to working on the LLVM port of Kite, though, so I implemented a few things:

  1. I moved kite–llvm development to a Git repository. This is mostly an experiment to see how it goes. I like it so far, though.
  2. Implemented basic exceptions in kite–llvm (no stack trace yet): 
    harry:kite-llvm mooneer$ ./kite
run 
[ 
    (make this.System.exceptions.exception())|throw; 
] 
catch 
[
    __exc.message|print; 
];
^D
Exception thrown
harry:kite-llvm mooneer$ 
  3. Implemented an ikt port: 
    harry:kite-llvm mooneer$ ./ikt
Interactive Kite console
ikt> "hello world"|print;
hello world
---> hello world
ikt> ^D
harry:kite-llvm mooneer$  
  4. Class definition and instantiation support: 
    harry:kite-llvm mooneer$ ./kite
class X
[
    method __init__() [ this.elite = 1337; ];
];

(make X()).elite|print;
^D
1337
harry:kite-llvm mooneer$  

Anyway, more updates soon :)
