Replacement for libtcc #67

Closed CedricGuillemet closed 5 years ago

CedricGuillemet commented 5 years ago

Currently some nodes (paint, file read/write) are coded in C using libtcc. There are some unrecoverable errors, will not work in JS world because of JIT and I don't feel like recompiling libtcc with emscripten. I'm looking for alternative solution. 1 might be to replace it with a JS interpreter. What are other options?

Hey @CedricGuillemet This is probably a big dependency (LLVM), but what about Open Shading Language? It is what Gaffer decided on for leveraging OSL for more than just shading but also mesh deformation and expressions.

Another idea is what about SPIRV-Cross with ISPC? https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/spir-v-to-ispc-convert-gpu-compute-to-the-cpu HLSL or GLSL compute could just be used then which could be really cool.

The need is much more simple. Only simple commands to run to change parameters on the rendering target/blend mode,...
