Erick and I would like to use the JsDoc tool to generate code documentation based on annotations inside comments. This would require that our file headers and functions/constructors be annotated according to the JsDoc annotation tags.
See the wiki at: http://code.google.com/p/jsdoc-toolkit/
I've annotated some sample files in the repository (see lowlevel/memory.js and ir/instructions.js), and updated the coding guidelines on Google Docs to explain how to do this.
Marc, do you have an opinion on this? It would imply adding annotations to your parser code.
What can be gained by restricting words to be 64 bits? Can't we simply have that as a parameter? The intel code generator I've written support 32 and 64 bit architectures.
That's the conclusion Erick and I came to as well. Perhaps we should simply have a configuration file that sets these sort of platform-specific behaviors... And if 32 bit pointers/values are faster even on 64 bit machines, we can set that by default, while still allowing 64 bit pointers/values.
