CSOM - The Simple Object Machine implemented in C

Introduction

SOM is a minimal Smalltalk dialect used to teach VM construction at the Hasso Plattner Institute. It was originally built at the University of Århus (Denmark) where it was also used for teaching.

Currently, implementations exist for Java (SOM), C (CSOM), C++ (SOM++), and Squeak/Pharo Smalltalk (AweSOM).

A simple SOM Hello World looks like:

Hello = (
  run = (
    'Hello World!' println.
  )
)

This repository contains a plain C implementation of SOM, including an implementation of the SOM standard library and a number of examples. Please see the main project page for links to the VM implementations.

CSOM can be built with Make:

$ make

Afterwards, the tests can be executed with:

./som.sh -cp Smalltalk TestSuite/TestHarness.som

A simple Hello World program is executed with:

./som.sh -cp Smalltalk Examples/Hello.som

The debug version of CSOM can be built using the debug target:

$ make debug
