Hi all,<br>
<br>
Starting from today the repository for tiered attribution [1] is
live and is ready for testing at [2]. The base code for tiered
attribution is current javac9 code. The main goal of this project is
to rewrite the core of the javac compiler: type attribution. We want
code that is easier to maintain. The side effect is that we are
producing a very very fast compiler, for some people the fastest in
the west :)<br>
<br>
If you wanna give it a try just clone the repo at [2], build it, and
please let us know about your experience. Please send comments, bug
reports, and how-can-javac-be-that-fast questions to [3] :)<br>
<br>
<b>Disclaimer</b><br>
<br>
Not all regression tests are passing right now. This is still a beta
version. Much failing tests are tests with golden files for which
the currently produced output doesn't match the golden file. The
code is still being cleaned up, we are working on it. Tiered
attribution won't imply changes to the JVM so currently we are only
maintaining the repository at [2]. If you want to use the latest JVM
code to test tiered attribution you can get it from [4].<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Vicente<br>
