c2go

We have hosted the application c2go in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about c2go:

A tool for converting C to Go. The goals of this project are to create a generic tool that can convert C to Go. To be cross platform (linux and mac) and work against as many clang versions as possible (the clang AST API is not stable). To be a repeatable and predictable tool (rather than doing most of the work and you have to clean up the output to get it working.) To deliver quick and small version increments. The ultimate milestone is to be able to compile the SQLite3 source code and have it working without modification. This will be the 1.0.0 release. The c2go program processes a single C file and outputs the translated code in Go. The C code is preprocessed with clang. This generates a larger file (pp.c), but removes all the platform-specific directives and macros.

Features:

• Clang compiles the C to a binary as normal
• c2go converts the C file to Go
• The Go is built to produce another binary
• Both binaries are executed and the output is compared
• All C files will contain some output so the results can be verified
• c2go requires Go 1.9 or newer

Programming Language: Go.
