Description-en: Scientific Interface Definition Language (SIDL) C(++)/FORTRAN runtime devel
Babel is a compiler for the Scientific Interface Definition Language (SIDL),
currently under development as a support tool for parallel simulation codes.
.
SIDL is in the same "phylum" as CORBA or COM, but with an eye toward future
extension to data redistribution on massively parallel architectures. In
addition, because of the large amount of existing and very important
scientific code written in FORTRAN, SIDL is designed with support for that
language in mind.
.
Babel is written in Java, and currently has backends for: FORTRAN 77, C, C++,
Java and Python.
.
This package contains the development files for the C, C++ and FORTRAN
backends.
