Implementing Language Support for ABI-Stable Software Evolution in Swift and LLVM
Abstract/s
Unlike its peer languages, Swift has made the deliberate decision to embrace a stable Application Binary Interface (ABI) along with native code compilation, such that separately-compiled software modules can evolve independently without breaking binary compatibility. Come learn about the impact that a stable ABI has on the design of a programming language and its implementation in LLVM.
