ITargetBackend

interface Raven/Vixen.Raven/CodeGen/ITargetBackend.cs:53
csharp
public interface ITargetBackend

A code generator for one target language. Backends consume IrModule and nothing else: they never see the bound tree or the syntax tree, so a new target is a new implementation of this and nothing more.

No guide page documents this yet — the page shows what the code says about itself.

Fields and properties (2)

  • string Name

    Identifier used on the command line, e.g. glsl.

  • string FileExtension

    Extension for generated files, including the dot.

Methods (1)

  • IReadOnlyList<GeneratedSource> Generate(IrModule irModule, DiagnosticBag diagnostics)

    Generates one unit per entry point. A backend reports what it cannot express through rather than emitting something that does not compile.
