I'm writing a basic command line operating system for the raspberry pi, much like those on computers from the 70's and early 80's. I have made the basic text input / output with assembly and would like to incorporate a BASIC interpreter into my code. I was thinking of writing my own version of BASIC and an interpreter in C++/Java (maybe not, since it's compiled into bytecode) then compiling it into ARM assembly for the raspberry pi, is this possible?

P.S I considered writing it in assembly, but figured that would be too complicated for my abilities.

Answer 1

Yes, it's possible since once you have a C++ compiler for your taget platform. You can use any language you want/need to, including Java since once all needed tools to compile/interpret are available in the target platform. You can do in assembly too. But do you really need/want to? it's really a lot of job without no much fun.
