Guile-freezer is a guild script to convert a script and dependent modules to objects to link into a C program linked with libguile.

Usage:

  $ guild freeze [options] [files]

Where options are

• -b, --inc-system : include any needed system .go files
• -s, --add-shell : execute repl-shell in the program
• -X, --no-compile : don't try to compile and load the program

For the -b option to work your guile must be built with the included patch. This allows the program to boot using the loaded boot-9.go file.

  $ cd demos
  $ ./build-world
  $ ./world

The above will generate a world.c main program file and a number of object files: one for each .go files used in the program. The .o files provide in-memory copies of the associated .go files so that modules may be loaded using scm_load_thunk_from_memory.

• This is in development: alpha release
• Only x86_64: if you want others check Omap and Bmap in freeze.scm

$ guild freeze -b -s -X world.scm
$ gcc -o world `pkg-config --cflags guile-3.0` world.c world.xd/*.o \
               `pkg-config --libs guile-3.0`
