Phoenix CGO Tutorial Available via Connect

Fri, 16 Mar 2007 20:52:19 Z

The Phoenix team recently held the Practical Phoenix tutorial at CGO 2007. We're excited to announce that the tutorial notes and code are now available to download.

Practical Phoenix is a series of 9 plugins that illustrate how to recognize and manipulate loop structures in IR. The tutorial notes describe the concepts involved and discuss some of the key phoenix technologies that appear in the code samples -- notably, plugins, extension objects, the flow graph, bit vectors (used both as sets and as worklists), the dataflow package, and (to a lesser extend) IR, symbols, and types.

The code samples also include the IRViewer plugin, which is a windows-forms based viewer for Phoenix IR.

You can find the tutorial here: http://connect.microsoft.com/Phoenix (select downloads on the left, or click the link in the Practical Phoenix topic). The code samples build with the March 2007 RDK (also available via connect).

As always, we'd love to hear your feedback -- either about this tutorial or anything else Phoenix related.
