ApolloVM

ApolloVM is a portable VM (native, JS/Web, Flutter) that can parse, translate and run multiple languages, like Dart, Java, Kotlin and JavaScript.

Usage

The ApolloVM is still in alpha stage. Below, we can see a simple usage examples in Dart and Java.

Language: Dart

import 'package:apollovm/apollovm.dart';

void main() async {
  var vm = ApolloVM();

  var codeUnit = CodeUnit(
          'dart',
          r'''
          
          void main(List<Object> args) {
            var title = args[0];
            var a = args[1];
            var b = args[2] ~/ 2;
            var c = args[3] * 3;
            
            if (c > 120) {
              c = 120 ;
            }
            
            var str = 'variables> a: $a ; b: $b ; c: $c' ;
            var sumAB = a + b ;
            var sumABC = a + b + c;
            
            print(str);
            print(title);
            print(sumAB);
            print(sumABC);
          }
            
          ''',
          'test');

  var loadOK = await vm.loadCodeUnit(codeUnit);

  if (!loadOK) {
    throw StateError('Error parsing Dart code!');
  }

  var dartRunner = vm.getRunner('dart')!;
  
  dartRunner.executeFunction('', 'main', [
    ['Sums:', 10, 30, 50]
  ]);

  print('---------------------------------------');
  // Regenerate code:
  var codeStorageDart = vm.generateAllCodeIn('dart');
  var allSourcesDart = codeStorageDart.writeAllSources().toString();
  print(allSourcesDart);
  
}

Note: the parsed function print was mapped as an external function.

Output:

variables> a: 10 ; b: 15 ; c: 120
Sums:
25
145 

Language: Java11

import 'package:apollovm/apollovm.dart';

void main() async {

  var vm = ApolloVM();

  var codeUnit = CodeUnit(
          'java11',
          r'''
            class Foo {
               static public void main(String[] args) {
                 var title = args[0];
                 var a = args[1];
                 var b = args[2];
                 var c = args[3];
                 var sumAB = a + b ;
                 var sumABC = a + b + c;
                 print(title);
                 print(sumAB);
                 print(sumABC);
               }
            }
          ''',
          'test');

  var loadOK = await vm.loadCodeUnit(codeUnit);

  if (!loadOK) {
    throw StateError('Error parsing Java11 code!');
  }

  var javaRunner = vm.getRunner('java11')!;
  
  javaRunner.executeClassMethod('', 'Foo', 'main', [
    ['Sums:', 10, 20, 30]
  ]);

  print('---------------------------------------');
  // Regenerate code:
  var codeStorageDart = vm.generateAllCodeIn('dart');
  var allSourcesDart = codeStorageDart.writeAllSources().toString();
  print(allSourcesDart);

  print('---------------------------------------');
  // Regenerate code:
  var codeStorageJava = vm.generateAllCodeIn('java11');
  var allSourcesJava = codeStorageJava.writeAllSources().toString();
  print(allSourcesJava);
  
}

Note: the parsed function print was mapped as an external function.
