For example, When a module is imported the runtime semantics "require" its initialization part be completed before we can proceed further. That automatically precludes the loops in the import-export relation graph. My VAX-VMS Modula-2 compiler from Hamburger doesn't check this kind of error. I cannot find clear definition in the Modula-2 manual neither. CJL, Dept. of CSCI, IUPUI cjl@Indiana@UDEL-Relay

While I was going to grad school, I worked at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory where, buried under a pile of papers and listings, was a Modula-2 compiler written in Pascal for a Cyber-like machine. The person who had the compiler is gone, but I recall it came from ETH. Jim Conrad hplabs!hpcnof!j_conrad

Either a public domain compiler or a > reasonably priced commercial product would be fine. At Technical University Berlin we have a Modula2 compiler/interpreter for VM/SP-CMS. It is written in Pascal/VS. It is derived from the original PDP11 frontend. The machine code generator is under developement.
