   May 10, 2009 · Not all compilers do this - the MS compilers produce object code directly, though you can make them generate assembler output. Translating assembler to object code is a pretty simple process, at least compared with C→Assembly or C→Machine-code translation.

   Aug 5, 2019 · $\begingroup$ Most modern mainstream C/C++ compilers do emit machine code directly, at least for x86; clang/LLVM, MSVC, and ICC. Only GCC still runs as as a separate process, with an actual tmp file or pipe containing asm text. Other compilers can produce asm text if you ask them to.

   The interesting thing today is that computers are fast enough today to make the following scenario reasonable: you code a compiler to C, and an interactive REPL which reads some expression, compile it to C code (often a few hundred of lines), forks a compilation of that generated C code into a plugin, then finally dynamically loads that ...

   Not all compilers produce "machine code" (except for the trivial interpretation that all code in some language is machine code for an abstract machine induced by that language). For example, lots of compilers produce ECMAScript source code: CoffeeScript, TypeScript, PureScript, Elm, Opal, GWT, Emscripten, Babel, Clozure, Scala.js, Kotlin, Clue.

   Compilers may generate code for a particular machine, not assuming any operating system or library routines. This is “pure code” because it includes nothing beyond the instruction set.

   What is the difference between a compiler and a machine?

   • Compilers translate source code into assembly code, which is a human-readable version of machine code. However, the correct assembly or machine code needed to make a program run depends on the operating system.

   Which C/C++ compiler produces machine code directly?

   • clang/LLVM, MSVC, and ICC all produce machine code directly. GCC is the exception, not the rule, among mainstream C/C++ compilers, at least for x86. These days, many compilers are implemented as front-ends for LLVM. @PeterCordes please notice the date on my answer. The world has changed!

   Does C++ have to be implemented by a compiler?

   • There is nothing in the language specification of C, C++, or Go that says that it has to be implemented by a compiler that produces machine code. In fact, there is nothing in those specifications that says the language has to be implemented by a compiler at all.

   Can a compiler read a source code?

   • I've been reading that in most cases (like gcc) the compiler reads the source code in a high level language and produces the corresponding machine code. Machine code, by definition, is the code that a processor can understand directly. However, it's a common misconception that machine code should be only machine (processor) dependent and OS independent. But this is not the case.

   Mar 18, 2024 · However, computers work with machine code, which people can hardly write or read. Thus, compilers translate the programming language’s source code to machine code dedicated to a specific machine. In this article, we’ll analyze the compilation process phases. Then, we’ll see the differences between compilers and interpreters.
