Demonstration examples for Scala Days Berlin 2016 talk

scalan-starter

Scalan-starter is a simple base project to start working with Scalan (see its README for more information).

Because there is currently no published version of Scalan, to build scalan-starter you first need to:

1. Clone or download LMS (git clone https://github.com/scalan/virtualization-lms-core.git from command line).
2. Run sbt publishLocal in the directory it was cloned to.
3. Clone or download Scalan (git clone https://github.com/scalan/scalan.git).
4. Similarly run sbt publishLocal.
5. Previous step produces file examples/target/scala-2.11/src_managed/main/buildinfo/application.scala in scalan directory. Copy value of extraClassPath from there (including quotes) into scalan-starter-core/src/main/resources/application.conf under key scalan.plugins.extraClassPath in this directory (see reference.conf files in scalan for other configuration options, which you may also want to change).

You should now be able to run sbt test to check that demonstration examples. You will see messages like error: illegal sharing of mutable objects ..., which can be ignored.

Now you can try writing your own Scalan DSLs and kernels and running them.
