Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler
Waste of time: I have been waiting for a book like this for quite awhile. I've read John Gough's book and although that was too much Pascal for me; it was certainly closer to the topic than this book. This book is both incomplete and off the mark. One of [... more]

Modern Compiler Implementation in C
this is a java book in disguise: I bought this book, much to my chagrin, because I had looked at the Java one which FYI is a verbatim copy of this one. All the author did was translate the examples from Java to C. This was done in a very poor fashion I [... more]

Modern Compiler Implementation in Java
Wonderful content marred by confusing samples and typography: As many others have noted, the "Dragon Book" by Aho, Sethi, and Ullman feels outdated today. The early chapters on regular expressions and grammars are still top-notch, but the [... more]

A Retargetable C Compiler: Design and Implementation
Almost everything you need to know about a simple compiler: I first read this book when I ported lcc 3.5 to the Alpha (and later helped tune the production 4.0 port). The book is extremely clear and complete with regard to the lcc compiler itself; it is [... more]

Compiler Construction: Principles and Practice: ...
Only Complete coverage if used in conjunction with Dragon!: This is an excellent text. Louden's Compilers book is far better than his silly excuse for a Programming Languages book. Combined with Aho, et. al. "Dragon Book" you will have [... more]

Modern Compiler Design
Very good: Overall, this is an excellent book for compilers. It covers a broad range of concepts. On think that I like is that the authors didn't take the very popular approach of "hey, let's write a small subset of Pascal". They actually only [... more]
