This is an example of Clang based interpreter, for executing standalone C/C++ programs. It demonstrates the following features: 1. Parsing standard compiler command line arguments using the Driver library. 2. Constructing a Clang compiler instance, using the appropriate arguments derived in step #1. 3. Invoking the Clang compiler to lex, parse, syntax check, and then generate LLVM code. 4. Use the LLVM JIT functionality to execute the final module. 5. Intercepting a Win64 library call to allow throwing and catching exceptions in and from the JIT. The implementation has many limitations and is not designed to be a full fledged interpreter. It is designed to demonstrate a simple but functional use of the Clang compiler libraries.
