# GIMPLE
You can see the full documentation about what GIMPLE is [here](https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/GIMPLE.html). In this document we will explain how to generate it.
First, we'll copy the content from `gcc/gcc/testsuite/jit.dg/test-const-attribute.c` into a
file named `local.c` and remove the content we're not interested into:
```diff
- /* { dg-do compile { target x86_64-*-* } } */
...
- /* We don't want set_options() in harness.h to set -O3 to see that the const
- attribute affects the optimizations. */
- #define TEST_ESCHEWS_SET_OPTIONS
- static void set_options (gcc_jit_context *ctxt, const char *argv0)
- {
- // Set "-O3".
- gcc_jit_context_set_int_option(ctxt, GCC_JIT_INT_OPTION_OPTIMIZATION_LEVEL, 3);
- }
-
- #define TEST_COMPILING_TO_FILE
- #define OUTPUT_KIND GCC_JIT_OUTPUT_KIND_ASSEMBLER
- #define OUTPUT_FILENAME "output-of-test-const-attribute.c.s"
- #include "harness.h"
...
- /* { dg-final { jit-verify-output-file-was-created "" } } */
- /* Check that the loop was optimized away */
- /* { dg-final { jit-verify-assembler-output-not "jne" } } */
```
Then we'll add a `main` function which will call the `create_code` function but
also add the calls we need to generate the GIMPLE:
```C
int main() {
gcc_jit_context *ctxt = gcc_jit_context_acquire();
create_code(ctxt, NULL);
gcc_jit_context_dump_to_file(ctxt, "tmp.gimple", 1);
return 0;
}
```
Then we can compile it by using:
```console
gcc local.c -I `pwd`/gcc/gcc/jit/ -L `pwd`/gcc-build/gcc -lgccjit -o out
```
And finally when you run it:
```console
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`/gcc-build/gcc LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`/gcc-build/gcc ./out
```
You should now have a file named `tmp.gimple` which contains:
```c
__attribute__((const))
int xxx ()
{
int D.3394;
int sum;
int x;
<D.3377>:
x = 45;
sum = 0;
goto loop_cond;
loop_cond:
x = x >> 1;
if (x != 0) goto after_loop; else goto loop_body;
loop_body:
_1 = foo (x);
_2 = _1 * 2;
x = x + _2;
goto loop_cond;
after_loop:
D.3394 = sum;
return D.3394;
}
```
