Create my own LUA compiler

[dam034]

Dear users,

I have a ubuntu server, and I want to create my own LUA compiler.

It's not that I don't trust yours, but I want to create my own.

 

What do I have to do?

 

Thanks

Well, since you want to compile Lua... you should know Assembly. The thing that MTA does is encrypt.

Just to inform you, if you're planning on created a lua compiler to use with MTA, that will not work.

Lua does not compile to assembly (Except JIT), and knowing assembly is not a requirement.

You will have to study about compilers, which includes lexers, parsers, grammars, ASTs etc.

The answers here will be very helpful to you: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1669/learning-to-write-a-compiler

Lua's syntax in extended BNF is given here: http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#8 (Last section on the page)
