- a few sample Ceylon programs
First you must make sure you have built the ceylon.language and ceylon-spec projects. Go into ceylon.language first and run
ant clean publish
Then go into ceylon-spec and run
ant clean publish
To build and test the compiler return to ceylon-compiler and run
ant clean publish
To run the tests type
ant test
Note that some of the tests currently fail. See more info in README.tests.
Once built, the compiler lives in this jars:
~/ceylon/repo/com/redhat/ceylon/compiler/0.1/com.redhat.ceylon.compiler-0.1.jar
If you want to build and run the Ceylon compiler in Eclipse then please see README.eclipse for setup instructions.
The compiler can be run as follows:
bin/ceylonc -src samples -out build/ceylon-cars samples/helloworld.ceylon
The -src argument to the compiler is required in order for the compiler to figure out each class's full name. It is a colon-separated path, much like javac's -sourcepath argument.
You can add -rep arguments to add module repositories. Note that this is currently limited to local folders.
Right now the Ceylon runner doesn't support module repositories so you have to give it a valid classpath (this will be fixed soon):
bin/ceylon -cp build/ceylon-cars/unversioned/default_module-unversioned.car helloworld
The ceylondoc tool can be run as follows:
bin/ceylond -out api-docs -src ../ceylon.language/languagesrc/current
