Hello everyone,


I am implementing a simple interpreter. I plan to separate the parsing
and interpreting process. The source files are treated by the parser
and generate a binary form intermediate language. The interpreter take
the binary intermediate language and interprets it.


SOURCE FILE
      |
      v
|Parser| ==>BINARY INTERMEDIATE LANGUAGE ==>|Interpreter|


Unlike Java VM, The intermediate should have almost the same elements
of the source language. I am wondering how to represent this
intermediate language. Anyone has any hint?
[If you just want to interpret it, I like strings of RPN tokens and a
simple stack-based interpreter. -John]
