0.1.2

A pull request for the ponyc formula to be part of homebrew-core is pending.

• ponyc: Recommended. Should work on most modern x86_64 platforms.
• ponyc-avx2: For platforms with AVX2 support.
• ponyc-numa: A numa-aware version of ponyc-avx2.

First, import the public key of ponylang.org:

$ wget -O - http://www.ponylang.org/releases/buildbot@lists.ponylang.org.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -

Add the ponylang.org repository to apt-get:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://ponylang.org/releases/apt ponyc main"
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://ponylang.org/releases/apt ponyc-avx2 main"
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://ponylang.org/releases/apt ponyc-numa main"

Note that add-apt-repository may require to install python-software-properties or software-properties-common.

Then, update your repository cache:

$ sudo apt-get update

Install ponyc, ponyc-avx2 or ponyc-numa:

$ sudo apt-get install <package name>
$ ponyc --version
0.1.2

First, add the ponylang.org repository:

$ sudo zypper ar -f http://www.ponylang.org/releases/yum/ponyc.repo

Install ponyc, ponyc-avx2 or ponyc-numa:

$ sudo zypper install <package-name>
$ ponyc --version
0.1.2

First, add the ponylang.org repository:

$ sudo yum-config-manager --add-repo=http://www.ponylang.org/releases/yum/ponyc.repo

Install ponyc, ponyc-avx2 or ponyc-numa:

$ sudo yum install <package-name>
$ ponyc --version
0.1.2

64-Bit installers for Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10 will be available soon.

All installers can also be downloaded from ponylang.org's servers:

• Ubuntu/Debian
• RPM
• Windows

First, install LLVM 3.6 using your package manager. You may need to install zlib and ncurses as well.

This will build ponyc and compile helloworld:

$ make config=release
$ ./build/release/ponyc examples/helloworld

To build a NUMA-aware runtime, install libnuma-dev using your package manager and build as follows:

$ make use=numa config=release

First, install homebrew if you haven't already. Then, brew llvm36, like this:

$ brew tap homebrew/versions
$ brew install llvm36

This will build ponyc and compile helloworld:

$ make config=release
$ ./build/release/ponyc examples/helloworld

The LLVM 3.7 (not 3.6!) prebuilt binaries for Windows do NOT include the LLVM development tools and libraries. Instead, you will have to build and install LLVM 3.7 from source. You will need to make sure that the path to LLVM/bin (location of llvm-config) is in your PATH variable.

You will also need to build and install premake5 (not premake4) from source. We need premake5 in order to support current versions of Visual Studio.

You may also need to install zlib and ncurses.

$ premake5 vs2013
$ Release build with Visual Studio (ponyc.sln)
$ ./build/release/ponyc examples/helloworld
