ABSTRACT:
An operator definition file102and the like included in a source program101and a compiler100that translates the source program101into a machine language program105are provided. The operator definition file102includes definitions of various fixed point type operators by class definitions. The compiler100can generate effectively advanced and specific instructions that a processor executes and make improvements through expanding functions and the like without repeating frequently upgrading of the version of the compiler itself. The compiler100is made up of an intermediate code generation unit121that generates intermediate codes, a machine language instruction substitution unit122that substitutes the intermediate codes referring to classes defined by the operator definition file102with machine language instructions and an optimization unit130that performs optimization targeting the intermediate codes including the substituted machine language instructions.
