• Lightweight compiler extension

  by Paul Phillips

  Extending the compiler should be easier, both in terms of the mechanics of doing so and in terms of how much you have to understand to get very far. My dream is for scalac to be a platform upon which people can build and components can compose, and for the overhead to be so low that you could (and would) write and apply useful compiler modifications from the command line. In this talk I'd share details.
